Tenses: I do & I am doing

Focus: Grammar in action

Learn when to say 'I do' (Present Simple) and when to say 'I'm doing' (Present Continuous).


Step 1:

Watch the video lesson twice.

The second time, when you hear a good example sentence, stop the video and write it down for yourself.


Note taking deepens your understanding of grammar-related topics.

The better your understanding of grammar usage (not just the rules!), the more confident you will be to speak English.



Step 2:

When you've finished the video lesson, download the Exercise PDF below and do the exercises.

Make sure you write complete sentences.

When you've finished the exercises, download the ZIP file below.

Use the Answer key PDF to check and correct your answers.

Then, use the Audio file to practise and master these two tenses through two listening activities:

Activity 1: Listen & write (or type) each correct answer.

Activity 2: Listen & repeat each correct answer out loud several times without looking at the text.

Reminder:

Save the Audio file to your mobile device so you can access it anytime anywhere.

The more you listen and repeat complete sentences out loud, the more you will be able to speak naturally and confidently.

When you feel you've fully mastered the material in this lesson, take the quiz.

You need to get a minimum score of 80% in each quiz to receive your Certificate of Completion, so repeat the quiz until you score above 80%. You can take each quiz up to 10 times.
