Is it annoying? (Using present continuous for habits)

In this episode, I’m going to help you use two tenses in English grammar with examples:  present continuous for habits and present simple for habits. If you use them wrong, you might hurt someone’s feelings or cause misunderstandings. 

We talked about present simple for habits and regular actions and events in season 1, and today we are learning more interesting things about how to use both correctly.

(If you haven’t listened to it yet or haven’t practiced, that’s ok; we will do a little review today.  But going back to season one is a great idea to help you remember and speak fluently)


Remember to go with this flow:

1. Listen to this episode. Listen and try to relax. You will get:

– simple explanations,
– examples,
and,
– chances to practice. So:

2. Listen again, and try to answer the questions out loud. (I can emphasize out loud enough!)

3. Follow me on social media to get reminders for at least one more practice during the week. This time, try to give new answers.

4. If you are listening on YouTube, do not forget to:

  • Turn on the CC (Closed Captions),
  • “Like” the video (if you liked it!),
  • “Subscribe” (because you don’t want to miss extra videos I upload only on YouTube),
    and
  • hit the “Notification” bell (because why not?!)

Now, let’s get going!
