Simple Present vs.Present Continuous Tense

Grammatical tenses encode meaning — they reflect the reality a speaker intends to express.
 
To choose the correct tense when communicating, you must first identify the nature of that reality. Every reality is time-based (past, present, or future) and falls into one of two fundamental categories: completed or ongoing.
 
This course focuses on two essential present-time forms: the Simple Present and the Present Continuous.
 
You will learn how to recognize the reality you wish to express and instinctively select the tense that accurately matches it — enabling you to choose the correct present tense automatically.
