    THE SIMPLE PRESENT AND THE PRESENT CONTINUOUS TENSE
    The simple present tense: we use the simple present tense
    for habitual actions, habits, routines and frequency adverbs.

    FOR EXAMPLE:
    I drink coffee every day.
    I always drink coffee at night.

    FREQUENCY ADVERBS:
    Always, almost always, usually, often, generally, sometimes,
    occasionally, hardly ever, never
    THE PRESENT CONTINUOUS TENSE
    The present continuous: we use the present continuous to
    describe actions in progress now or future plans.

    FOR EXAMPLE:
    I’m drinking water now.
    I’m taking guitar lessons on Monday nights.

    BE CAREFUL!: with some verbs, we can only use the simple


    present tense.
    THE PRESENT CONTINUOUS TENSE
    We usually use the simple present tense with have, want,
    need, and like.

    EXAMPLE:
    I have one sister. NOT: I’m having one sister
    I want a new jacket. I’m wanting a new jacket.
    I need new shoes. I’m needing new shoes.
    I like coffee. I’m liking coffee.
    THE SIMPLE PRESENT TENSE: FREQUENCY ADVERBS
    Frequency means: How many times? – cuantas veces or How
    often? – que tan a menudo o con que frecuencia, we do
    something.

    the answer to the question: How often do you…?


    FOR EXAMPLE: let me tell you How often I do things on the
    weekends.
    I always read the newspaper.
    I usually sleep late.
    I sometimes go to the movies.
    I never work.
    THE SIMPLE PRESENT TENSE: FREQUENCY ADVERBS
    We put the frequency adverb before the verb. For example:

    He always sleeps late.


    He sleeps always late.

    We never work on the weekend.


    We work never on the weekend.

    With the verb: be: am, is, are.


    We put the frequency adverb after the verb. For example:
    My Friends are usually tired after work.
    My sister is always busy on the weekend.
    THE SIMPLE PRESENT AND THE PRESENT CONTINUOUS TENSE

    present tense or the present continuous.

    2. Kevins can't pick us up at school today. _______ (work) all


    day.
