What English tenses are covered on Satori?
Two groups: present tenses (be/have/have got, present simple, present continuous, and present simple vs continuous) and past tenses (past simple, past continuous, past simple or continuous, used to and would, past perfect simple, past perfect continuous).
What order should I study English tenses in?
Start with the present tenses — be/have/have got, then present simple, then present continuous, and finally simple vs continuous. After that move to the past tenses, starting with past simple and working up to past perfect continuous.
What is the difference between present simple and past simple?
Present simple describes habits, facts and routines: 'I work in London'. Past simple describes completed actions in the past: 'I worked there from 2018 to 2022'. The past simple uses -ed for regular verbs (worked, lived) and special past forms for irregular verbs (went, saw, had).
