Hi EB I'm struggling with verb tenses. Can you help me understand them better?

Hello! I'm here to assist you. Understanding verb tenses is crucial for effective communication. We can start by focusing on specific tenses you find challenging. Let's begin with the present simple tense. How familiar are you with its usage and formation?

I'm not very confident with the present simple tense. I often get confused between "do" and "does" in questions and negatives.

I see. Mastering the present simple tense takes practice. When asking questions or creating negatives, we use "do" for the pronouns "I," "you," "we," and "they," and "do" for the pronouns "he," "she," and "it." For example, "Do you like coffee?" or "Does he play the guitar?" The negative forms are "do not" or "don't" for the first set of pronouns and "does not" or "doesn't" for the second set. Remember, practice makes perfect!
