Present Simple

It focuses on grammar points / structures / patterns in simple English:

Student Instructions: Grammar Points – Present Simple

1. Form (Structure)

   • Affirmative:

     • I/You/We/They + base verb → I study English.

     • He/She/It + verb + s/es → She studies English.

   • Negative:

     • I/You/We/They + do not (don’t) + base verb → I don’t like coffee.

     • He/She/It + does not (doesn’t) + base verb → He doesn’t like coffee.

   • Question:

     • Do + I/you/we/they + base verb? → Do you go to school every day?

     • Does + he/she/it + base verb? → Does she live near here?

2. Use

   • Use the Present Simple to talk about:

     • Daily routines: I wake up at 6 a.m.

     • Habits: I usually study at night.

     • Facts: The sun rises in the east.

3. Time Expressions (Common Signals)

   • every day, usually, always, often, sometimes, never, in the morning, at night, etc.

4. Important Rules

   • After do/does, use the base form of the verb:

     • Does she go to school? (NOT goes)

   • Change sentences into negative and question forms.
