This lesson is an overview of the complete English tense system (17 tenses). We look at the formulation, concept, and frequency of use of each tense. You can watch my live presentation here (12 minutes). The Downloadable Zip file contains: 1. Slides: Save or print these for future reference. 2. Written quiz: Take this quiz to test how well you remember the concepts of the 12 most frequently used tenses. 3. Oral version of the quiz: Do the quiz orally (Listen - Answer - Repeat) without reading. Oral drilling is the most important step in activating any structure into your own speech. Check out the details of my 7-week LIVE English Tenses Bootcamp, starting on 12 October 2024. This unique course is fully based on the 'oral drilling' technique to make sure you can use all the tenses reflexively when you speak.

This gap-fill exercise will allow you to see how well you've understood the concept of all the tenses we studied together on the Bootcamp course. I have not included any Passive structures. All the sentences are in the Active form. Make sure you have reviewed all seven lessons (Slides or Presentations) before you attempt the quiz. This is how I'd recommend you do the quiz: 1. Read the whole passage without filling in the gaps to become familiar with the context. 2. Fill in the gaps (in a different colour) in two steps: Step 1: Choose the first tense that comes to mind; don't think too long about it. Step 2: Check your initial answers and make any necessary corrections. (For this step, feel free to refer to the Lesson Slides to refresh your memory). 3. When you're happy with your answers, save it as a Word document and email it to me at minoo@anglo-link.com. 4. I will then send you the Answer key to check your answers and mark any mistakes. 5. When you see the correct answer, it should be immediately clear to you why that's the correct tense. If you have reviewed all the lessons and done all the exercises, but you still find the quiz challenging, my recommendation is to book a one-to-one session so we can go through the quiz together for further clarification and some drilling exercises with me in your own contexts. We will be going through the answers in our last LIVE session on Saturday, 15 March at 12 noon. If you're planning to join that session, please send me your completed quiz before Saturday. I'm looking forward to receiving your completed quizzes! Enjoy!

Make sure you have reviewed all the lessons (Slides or Presentations) for Weeks 1, 2, 3, and 4 before you attempt the quiz. This is how I'd recommend you do the quiz: 1.
