The present continuous tense is used to talk about activities happening now.

It is formed with the forms of the verb to be plus a verb in gerund. (be + ing)

Example:

My father is taking a shower now.

The kids are watching t.v.

The man is running down the street

Hi Guys!

Well, as I´ve already told you, in this period, we´re going to review three different tenses:

• Simple Present Tense



• Present Continuous Tense



• Simple Past Tense

Here you´ll practice with the regular and irregular verbs, and you´ll be able to identify the correct verb form on a sentence.

First, we´ll start working on the simple present tense, which is used to speak about routines, habits and things you do at the moment of speaking.

Examples:

I LOVE DANCING

TINA USUALLY GETS UP AT 6:30

BRANDON GOES TO THE GYM THREE TIMES AT WEEK.

For more information, I give you some web-sites, where you´ll find grammar and activities in order to practice it.
