Past tenses: Past Simple(I went), Past Continuous (I was going), Past Perfect (I had gone), Past Perfect Continuous(I had been going). We use Past Simple for a past action when the time is given; when the time is asked about; when the action clearly took place at the definite time, even when we don't know the exact time and dont talk about it. The best ways to teach Past Simple: narrative stories, cv, interview role-play, discussing real events in the past. We use Past Continuous when we talk about interrupted past actions, gradual development in the past and descriptions. The best ways to practice are: usage of diaries, telling stories, detective game. We use Past Perfect when we talk about two(or more) actions, one of them was finished before another one. The best ways to practice: story telling, writing; giving students the second action and ask them to create what happened before; backwards retelling a story. We use Past Perfect Continuous when we talk about longer actions or situations in the past that had been going on continuously up to the past moment we are thinking about.
