Permanet vrs Temporary Situations
Hello everyone
In English, when we want to talk about permanet situations such as everyday activities or hobbies, we use the simple present tense:
I work Monday through Friday. I always have breakfast.
We also use the simple present tense to describe facts or general truths:
The sun always rises in the east.
When you want to talk about temporary situations, use the present progressive:
I am staying at a hotel because my house is being repaired.

VOA
It´s been a while since I last made an entry in this blog. So here it goes.
I strongly believe that, by using technology in class and at home, students can benefit greatly as they are exposed to more content which helps them develop language skills necessary to cope with English usage.
Therefore, I want to give this website which I think is right up your alley. It´s VOA (Voice of America). It has material for English learners called: VOA Special English. Check it out:
