This unit is about present tenses. The first part is about difference of a time structure of different languages. It is vital for the learners of English to see and know the difference among the variety of present tenses in English. The first comes the present simple tense. This tence is widely used in everyday English. Generally students have no difficulties to absorb and understand the usage of this tense. Then comes present continous tense (or present progressive) . As a rule this is the first tense which students start to use. I can clearly understand when and why and how to explain the present progressive tense (actions in progress, actions at a time of speaking and etc. ). It`s really helpful that the most general errors and mistakes are mentioned after each tense chapter.
As for present perfect tense. It`s a great challanfe for a teacher to explain the usage of this tense. But very clear examples are helpful to absorb hints when and how to use present perfect. I think that the most challenging for english students is table of irregular verbs with past participle form of a verb. It`s great that in this unit we can find corresponding activities to activate the tense usage. The next part is about present perfect continous tense. It relates past actions or activities to the present. I think the easiest way to prewsent this tense to students is to give very clear and structered examples. Alongside attention should be payed to the duration of the action and progress of an action. Thank you ITTT for this unit!
