Support for School #2 (Simple Present)

Continuing with the former article series I proposed, today I am giving some support for school again and this time is relating to the simple present in English so here it is the support material:


SIMPLE PRESENT

FORMULA: Subject or Noun + Verb(Present form) + Complement

See some examples:

Subject or Noun	Verb	Complement
I	Play	Football with my friends
You	Walk	Every morning
He	leaveS	at 10pm
She	TeacheS	English on weekends
It	ShineS	The whole night
We	Study	Together to get a nice grade
They	Work	Very hard every day

Notice: When you talk for a third person (He, She, It) the verb must have an S.

HOW TO MAKE QUESTIONS: For making a question, what you need to do is to use the auxiliary verbs DO or DOES.

• You use DO with the nouns: I, You, We, They. See some examples

Do you play football with your friends? - yes, I do/ no, I do not

Do they work very hard every day? - yes, they do/ no, they do not

• You use Does with the nouns: He, She, It. See some examples

Does he leave at 10pm? - yes he does/ no he does not

Does she teach English on weekends? - yes she does/ no, she does not

I hope you find this information useful and it can make you improve your grades somehow, however, don't focus too much on learning English as a math formula just like I presented to you on today's article, focus on listening and learning like a child and you will seriously learn to speak English fluently, automatically and powerfully.
