Simple Present Vs. Present Continuous What’s the difference?

Simple Present Use the present simple for things that are always true or happen regularly. EXAMPLES I walk to school every day. Jane likes eating chocolate cookies. He doesn’t wear glasses.

Simple Present REMEMBER: The spelling rules: Live - lives, study - studies, watch - watches Use Q A S I (Question, Auxiliary, Subject, Infinitive) to help you with word order in questions. Where does she work? Put adverbs of frequency (usually, often, etc.) before the main verb and after the verb to be I usually get up early. She’s never late.

Present Continuous Use the present continuous: For actions in progress at the time of speaking: A: Who are you waiting for? B: I’m waiting for a friend. For future arrangements: A: What are you doing after class? B: I’m going to the café. Remember the spelling rules: live - living , study - studying , get - getting

Action and non-action verbs Verbs which describe actions can be used in the present simple or continuous: I’m making pasta. I make pasta every Sunday. Verbs which describe states or feelings are not normally used in the present continuous. Common non-action verbs are: agree be believe belong forget hate hear know like love need prefer seem suppose

What tense is it and why? She is running home. They play football every Sunday. Rob and Ellen enjoy playing tennis. They have a problem with their computer. The office staff is eating lunch. I don’t agree with you. The printer is broken. They are playing badminton at 4.
