I have my own technic to learn English tenses. It is completely different from a traditional one which is proposed by many schools and teachers. You just have to memorize at least 12 sentences, one for each tense which describe your life situations. Use them in your daily life as you need, just change needed words. That's all.
Simple: I like sleeping. Do you? In 2008 I was fourteen. I'm old now. I will be in London at 5 p.m. I think. Continuous: I'm running right now. Let's talk later. I was sleeping when the fire began. I will be being busy at 5 o'clock. Let's meet at 7 p.m. Perfect: Have you ever been to England? I haven't. I had just got home when she called me. The game will have finished by 6 p.m. Who will be the winner? Perfect continuous: How long have you been learning English? I have been doing it for 3 years. I had been waiting for 1 hour when she came. I will have been running for 1 hour then I will do exercises for relaxation.
Hi Milutin! I am naturally a lazy person, so any method I can use to make things easier for me to understand tends to be short and sweet! This class is the result!
@@Canguroenglish I am also Serbian like Ziko. I would like to say same thing. I have a lot of problems with tenses even we are teaching english from 5-6 years old. But in this 10 minutes you explained even more than teachers were explaining to us for 10-15 years... Thank you.
This is so good! I explain the tenses the same way to my students -- but they still can't use them until I force them into a MILLION situations when they have to choose the right one and use it. Also, although in some situations "will" and "be going to" are interchangeable, in my thinking there is a specific difference in a number of situations. One is when you come up with an action that is a new idea spontaneously vs. when you have decided before. When we prepare an imaginary birthday party, people offer how they will contribute ("I'll make the cake!' "I'll bring the sandwiches!" "I'll decorate the room!") A person who was previously sent out of the room will be informed about the birthday party and will have to offer ways to contribute: "I'll make the cake!" "Sorry, you can't, because I'm going to make it!" "Okay, then I'll decorate the room!" "No, sorry, you can't because I'm going to decorate it!" Also, the weather forecast says: "It will rain a lot next month." But when I look out the window and see clouds, I say: "It's gonna rain!"
I've been studying English for years and this is the first time I really understand the logic of the verbal tenses. Thank you very much! You are an outstanding teacher.
I found you right now and it was like a masterclass. The best recommendation done by TH-cam. Thank you, Christian. Thank you for taking care with pronunciation and speaking velocity.
After studying English in school and highschool and also during years of private classes just as studying on my own, it's the fist time I internalize all the tenses at once. Thank you very much!!
Good morning teacher! You're a excellent teacher, without accent, with a clear voice and talk slowly! This is recipe to learn to fast! I've been watching your videos, it's amanzing!!!! thank you so much for your job. Fábio Jacob from Brazil - Belém - Pará
So Clear! I don't have any words to describe how thankful I am, Christan. All my frustration for those years is now gone! You're the best English teacher on the Internet I've seen so far. Million thanks 🙏
Thank you Christian for the clear explanation. I have asked my English friends about these tenses many times. None of them could explain it to me properly. I am even surprised how they speak so freely, knowing nothing about the tenses.
Great Christian! It's the first time in my life that I undestand the verb tenses!!!! Keep teaching all over the world by broadcasting your mithical video lessons
You're a man who has a dominant voice. I have to pay attention to you if I want or not. Your leave marks in my mind. It's a treasure for a language teacher.
My name is Abdiaziz Idiris from east Africa , somalia First I want to thank you for this simple and logic way that you are explaining the topics. I watched only two videos of this channel and many others from other English channels. The differences I can say 1) the simplicity 2) the method of your explanations including body languages , how you are giving the examples, and how you are attracting the attentions 3) the scientific way you use for the explanations rather than narrative method which many channels use that most of them seam it is a copy from one another. OK again and again thank you for this
I think the use of present simple in English, like you have explained it, is something genial because we live present just for a moment; one moment before is past, one moment after is future, so if I have to talk about this message I have to say: when I was writing "moment" and I have to say: I am going to write "Thank You". In this way, or we use present simple to talk only about a moment or we use present simple out of time. Genial! Thank you for your explanation of present simple out of time line, this is genial!
Hey!! There's nothing wrong with the way we talk!! Although this guys is talking a little more slowly than average really All different forms of English have their peculiarities, a part of what makes it interesting
Thank you for what you're doing for the world. I've been learning English for 18 years now and been teaching it since then in a place with lots of limitations. You are a light to me and to my students.
Congratulations dear Christian, it really was a "Clase Magistral" as we say in Spanish. I am a chilean teacher, with a lot of experience and all your explanations are actually helpful!!! Thanks a lot for giving me more self confidence when teaching!!!
Italian native speakers struggle with Past Perfect Cont. and Future Perfect Cont. because the Italian grammar doesn't have the continuous form in the past nor in the future. I think that for Spanish native speakers it's easier, since they say "estuve caminando todo el día" > I had been wolking. Thank you for your classes, Christian! I'm learning a lot!
For so long, I've been struggling with verbal tenses.. after this video, there will be struggle no more. Thank you so much kind sir! :) Keep it up with great content, because you are contributing to a positive change! Peace and love :)
Hey Christian, after a very long search on net; google and TH-cam both, your one liner has resolved my issue around simple tense. Thank you for deep thinking and help. Bijender, India
As you said, the past simple is used for a specific event which happened in the past, eg “I went to the shop at two o’clock yesterday.” But it is also used for ongoing things which won’t be repeated, eg “I went to school in Sydney.” I love the way you described the past perfect.
Hi Jason! For me an ongoing thing that won't be repeated and a specific event that happened in the past are the same thing. All events occupy some period of time, be it five seconds or five years, so it all depends on HOW you are looking at the event, from which ASPECT. Of course, YMMV!
This is the best video about the tens, which I saw until now. My English is not fluent, but I was understanding everything, what you was talking about. Thanks a lot.
Indeed, english verb tenses are usually difficult, especially when we try to use them during speaking. I used to think, that we should know and use all of them, but it wasn't true. Usually, we use 3-4 verb tenses in common situations (speaking). I have never heared some of them in conversation. However, being familiar with all of them is helpfull during writing. Thank you for clear explaining!
It's very fun seeing you teach this video. Reinforced and helped me to organize my English tenses so I could teach them better. Thank you for sharing this, from one teacher to another!
I found this interesting very much! This video was more effective for me than previous 14 (!!!) years of studying English. Thank you very much. It is difficult to understand deep meaning of english tenses for russian person, but I feel now, I have more courage to use more tenses that past simple, present simple and future simple 💪 You gave me this courage ❤️
I came across your clip videos and I think you are pefectly explanation about English grammma. Especially your British accent is quite clear. I think from now on I would follow your programs forever.😊
Hello Christian, I found this video very useful. I'm trying to improve my English, though I've been learning it since I was eleven (now I'm 65). Respectfully vocabulary, pronunciation and writing skills, I believe that being good at grammar is of utmost importance. I've got to be quite honest with you - I can't be a grammarian. By watching your videos I sincerely hope that'll help me. I look fwd to hearing from you soon. Best rgs, Miodrag
This lesson is amazing! you kept it very simple though very understandable and clear, I highly doubt someone will find English tenses hard from now on, but make sure you take a good care of yourself if you get sick how we're going to learn English, it's impossible coz you are the best :) ta-ta for now
Thanks Christian. This was very helpful. I'm English, so I use the language without thinking, but trying to learn other languages has made me realize that I have a lot of gaps in my grammar knowledge. I'll be checking out your other vids to see what else I don't know. 😁 Cheers mate.
I try to explain to my students where the grammar came from, or at least could come. The Simple is all about dots on the timeline - we list actions. Yesterday I did X, I do Y every morning. So, an auxiliary here is TO DO - to act. The Continuous is about states or processes. You describe things in simple saying: "it was big, red, etc.". -ing forms of verbs make adjectives from them too: "it was amusing". In other words, it was something why I became amused after being in touch with this thing. So, to the question: "What was he like?", we can answer: "He was tall and slim; annoying and boring; sitting and talking." He was of such and such properties and in such and such states. The same sentence we can identify either as Simple with some adjectives, or as Continuous with an inflected verb. It's all about description, about BEING in some state, thus TO DO as an auxiliary. -ing is always about doing something, at the moment (not perfected), actively. The Perfect is about giving a perspective. Again, I can say, using Simple: "I have my homework." I can add some descriptions: "I have my homework neat and shiny" (nevermind the word order for now). And again, you can make an adjective from the verb by putting it in the 3rd form (Past Participle). This form is all about "completeness", "doneness", in the past (perfected), often not by itself (passively). So I have my homework neat, tidy and finished, done. What is this work like? It has the property of tidiness, and also it has the property of completeness. We can guess by its look past actions that happened to happened to it, as if the past was imprinted in the work. It explains why the Perfect is always about 2 events in different moments, and how these events are connected. (Actually, "I've got" is also is sort of Perfect! "I have now something I got in the some time before"). So, Perfect is about HAVING (or not having) something being DONE in the past to the moment. "I have 5 visits to Paris in my life, paid" (Simple), meaning: "I have made 5 visits to Paris", meaning, "I have been", meaning, "I have 5 times when I was there". Where do I have them? Under my belt. :) And the Perfect Continuous, or "being completed in some time", is in essence a mechanical combination of the two, both in meaning and in grammar. You just need to combine "S + have + V3" with "be + Ving" in a column, as in maths (it works for any combined grammar, actually). This way of explaining things is rather brain-melting in the beginning, and explaining all this (combined with more traditional drills) may take some time, especially with younger students. But when digested, it gives a great understanding of all the grammar. Not only does it give an immunity from Tense mistakes, a really simple explanation of Passive, Causative, backshifts in Reported speech and tense shenanigans of Conditionals (which all are basically the same thing) AND helps with word formation, but also it makes you think about the language more, including your own, and gives me the "feeling" or "taste" of language, which is so hugely important. Well, I have a question: does it all make sense to you? How does it sound for a native speaker? If it is a good explanation, can it be improved somehow?
Totally understandable, Cristian! Thanks a lot. Your method about explaining all verbal tenses together is better than study each of them isolated. And that simple time line is gold to understanding verbal tenses use.
I want to say you thank you so much, because I was realy disappoiment before I found your youtube channel, at morning I had an interview in english and I failed 😭, I was stressfull. By the way I'm mexican, and I'm still learning english. In my interview, I forgot all about english, I told some of my anwers with no structure, because I was getting nervous, but now I feel good again, I'm comfortable when I speak in english again, It's courious, cause I learned english with american acent, but I uderstand you!!!
Hi Christian, You have forgotten one tense in the future : the present continuous (which we no longer call that among linguists in France, we call it "Present Be+ING") this present has a "future" value. It expresses a planned future. When you say "Tomorrow I will take a train home" s a project,but not a precise one whereas when you say "Tomorrow I am taking a train home" there's a fair chance that you know the time when the train is departing and that you already have a ticket booked. The fact that you use a present tense makes it a very certain future. That's my input. Thanks for your lessons they are great and very clear!

Awesome. this is the simplest and a very understanded explaination
I think this is the best explaining ever!

The Simple is all about dots on the timeline - we list actions. Yesterday I did X, I do Y every morning. So, an auxiliary here is TO DO - to act.
The Continuous is about states or processes. You describe things in simple saying: "it was big, red, etc.". -ing forms of verbs make adjectives from them too: "it was amusing".

Christian, we're pretty good in making the explanations clear! Thank you SO much!!!
Hi Christian, You have forgotten one tense in the future : the present continuous (which we no longer call that among linguists in France, we call it "Present Be+ING") this present has a "future" value. It expresses a planned future. When you say "Tomorrow I will take a train home" s a project,but not a precise one whereas when you say "Tomorrow I am taking a train home" there's a fair chance that you know the time when the train is departing and that you already have a ticket booked. The fact that you use a present tense makes it a very certain future. That's my input. Thanks for your lessons they are great and very clear!
Finally! Now I know how to manage English verbal tenses. Thank you Christian
