    I am an english teacher and i think Present Perfect is the most difficult tense in comparison with Past Simple.Students can not grasp the meaning and the difference between them.

      Dear Teacher - You have explained well about the Simple present tense, present continuous (progressive), present perfect and present perfect continuous. But you haven't explained the way how these sentences are sentences are formed. You must explain how the sentences are formed eg affirmative, negative and question. I shall appreciate if you make a comprehensive video on each type of sentence with some useful tips and a lot of practice.

    The message I seem to be getting from this
    • Present Simple- Use when talking about actions done regularly, habits, repetitive actions
    • Present Continuous- Use when talking about it happening in the now in that very moment
    • Present Perfect- Use when talking about something that starting in the past and is still going on in the present
    • Present Perfect Continuous- Use when talking about a continuous action that started in the past that is still happening now while referring to the whole period of time
    • Present Simple: Do, Does
    • Present Continuous: Am, Are, Is
    • Present Perfect: Have, Has
    • Present Perfect Continuous: Have been, Has been
    • Present Simple: Use verb in simplest forms
    • Present Continuous: Use verbs with ing
    • Present Perfect: Use have or has followed by past tense very
    • Present Perfect Continuous: Use have been or has been followed verb with Ing
    I hope I am understanding this correctly. (Present Continuous?)

  • @nathenewendzel7806

    I'm frustrated I wasn't taught this at any point from Elementary through High School. They covered past, present, and future tenses in school, but they never built upon in further in English and Language Arts classes. I did sense a slight difference in meaning whenever I used or read or heard different forms, but I didn't really have the thought until I was thinking back upon learning about the topic in a Spanish class and started wondering do we have something like that in English. I thought about the different ways to say things in the present tense and how they each seem to give off a different kind of message that I can't exactly explain very well and well it appeared to be evidence that English might also have subcategories of the tenses and so I looked it up and now I'm using this video to educate myself and I will most likely use this new information while writing my stories and things of importance.

      Jak na Angola to bardzo dobrze piszesz. Mała wskazówka - nie używaj zbyt często zaimków takich jak: JA, TY, gdyż przeważnie są one zbędne, a jeśli coś nie jest potrzebne, to my tego nie używamy. Naturalnie będzie powiedzieć:
      Gratuluję Ci, bardzo dobrze mówisz po angielsku, nawet lepiej niż ja a jestem Angolem.
      ewentualnie:
      Gratuluję Ci, bardzo dobrze mówisz po angielsku, nawet lepiej ode mnie a jestem Angolem.
      Jak zwracasz się do kogoś, to w dobrym zwyczaju jest używać wielkiej litery - Twoje, Ci itp.
