Overview of All English Tenses - Present Tenses - Present Simple Negatives and Questions

 

For statements in the negative form, what we have to do is add the auxiliary verb 'to do'. For subjects 'I', 'you', 'we' and 'they', we simply leave 'do' as 'do', use the word 'not', and keep the base form of the verb now for the negative statements. However, for 'he', 'she' and 'it', we have to conjugate our auxiliary verb into 'does'. We still use 'not' and we still keep the base form of the verb. The pattern performing questions is very very similar to the pattern performing negative statements. However, what we've done is invert our subject and our auxiliary verb so that the questions read the auxiliary verb first. Of course, again, we use 'do' for 'I', 'you', 'we' and 'they' and use 'does' for 'he', 'she' and 'it'. In both cases, we've left our verb form as the base form of the verb as there's no need to change it.


Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching. This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.

I have been taught much of this material while training to be a chemical dependency therapist. So, much of this material is review. I found the test questions a bit difficult because nearly all of the focused on "the missing detail". I think it is more important to be able to respond to the needs of the classroom situation. My goal in the classroom (as it relates to this section) is to try to maintain an awareness of each of the individuals in the classroom, while choosing my actions that are most beneficial to the class as a whole.
