1.   Present Continuous/ Animals This lesson plan teaches not only the present continuous but also animals for ESL students. Typically, this lesson will work best in elementary to lower level middle school students due to the high use of miming and acting.

2.   Introductory Lesson for Advanced Level Classes The beginning of a new class is a good time to a global review of the tenses and forms that you will be studying during the coming course. The idea of this exercise is not to intimidate the students, nor to have them learn everything in one go.

3.   Integrating Past Continuous - Past Tense Usage Learning the basic structure and usage of the past continuous is usually not that difficult for most students. Unfortunately, this is not the case when it comes to actively integrating the past continuous, either in writing or in speaking. This lesson is aimed at helping students recognize the situations in which the use of the past continuous would be beneficial in writing.

4.   Use of Time Expressions Time expressions are often the key to understanding and planning written work. Students can improve their written and spoken accuracy by having a good grasp of the relationship between time expressions and tenses.

5.   A VIP - Present Perfect Simple and Continuous Students often confuse the present perfect and present perfect continuous. This lesson employs an imaginary biography to get students asking questions and speaking about completed accomplishments (present perfect) and duration of activity (present perfect continuous).

6.   English Tense Review for Advanced Level Learners It's back-to-school time. Before you or your students get down to studying the specifics of various grammar structures, it is a good idea to review the basic English tenses.
