9. Six Academic Tenses:  Present Tense  Past Tense  Future Tense  Present Perfect Tense  Past Perfect Tense  Future Perfect Tense Each of the tenses has its own uses.

10. Present Tense:  The action is occurring now.  Example:  Dwayne makes the batter for the cake.

13. Present Perfect Tense:  The action began in the past, but continues into the present or some indefinite time.  Follows “has” or “have”  Example:  Betty has taught for ten years.  (How is that sentence different from “Betty taught for 10 years.” ?)
