And since the teacher talked about the PRESENT PROGRESSIVE, can you tell me what it is? And how is it used?
Yes Ana, it's very easy, just imagine! It's a verb tense used in English to describe actions that are happening at the moment you speak.

The present progressive (composed of the verb be and the gerund that is formed by adding -ing at the end of the verb) is used to express an action that is in progress, in progress or unfinished.
How wonderful, please tell me more.
They should be sleeping by now,would that be the right way?
This can also be used with the mode auxiliaries
Okay Ana, I'll show you other ways to express it.

Can you give me an example?
The present progressive also allows us to express a future or an intention, through the use of the expression to be going to
We are going to count the votes this afternoon

And to ask in an interrogative way?
Oh, Ana, you learn quickly. I'm going to teach you the structure and forms of this present tense.
To form the negation, simply put the word not after the verb to be and before the gerund. The structure would be: Subject + to be + not + verb (-ing)
Liuku: 6
Would it be like To be + subject noy + verb (-ing)?
Eduar, you have been of great help, I will continue practicing a lot, what I have learned.
Yes, the present continuous is very important for communicating in English and next time I will teach you much more.
I'll keep that in mind, thanks a lot Eduar.
