Past Tense: I sat on the chair. - He ran. - She walked home. Present Tense: I am sitting on the chair. - He is running. - She is walking home. Future Tense: I will sit on the chair. - He will run. - She will walk home. Tenses are hard to understand and will take practice. Many actions carry the -ed ending in past tense while some words are changed. Present tense actions carry the -ing ending. Future tense actions are usually the base word preceded by 'will'. Remember: I was... I am... I will be... All those can be followed by -ing actions. Example: I was writing. I am writing. I will be writing. Of course, they can all be said differently too: I wrote. I am writing. I will write. I hope (present tense) this helps.

There are many tenses in English. A good place to start is with the present simple. Present simple usually works like this: I/you/they/we (verb) he/she/it (verb)+s Example: "walk" I walk you walk they walk we walk He/she/it: walks There are some verbs that are a little different (example: be, have, make) but for regular verbs that is how you use present simple. Basic past tense: Past simple. The basic rule is: (verb)+ed Example: walk I/you/they/we/he/she/it walked There are some irregular verbs that have different past simple forms but (verb)+ed works for many verbs in English. Future: The basic future tense is future simple. It works like this: will + (verb) Example: walk I/you/they/he/she/it will walk Good luck learning English! Melanie

Hello, I think, tenses are described good enough in the book by Raymond Murphy "A Self-study Reference and Practice Book for Intermediate Students. With Answers." 3rd ed. Hope this helps.
