Training English. All Tenses of the Verb

Verb tenses are the foundation of English grammar and simultaneously a stumbling block for most learners. In this book, we will try to adhere to the rule of 'simple about complex'. Our intensive course is aimed at developing practical skills for students, and its main feature is the principle of 'less theory, more practice'. The goal of this book is for readers to befriend English tenses and once and for all eliminate their choice problems. The main motto of the course is to systematize knowledge and build the logic of the aspect-tense system, rather than just memorize the tense table. This book may interest anyone who has already despaired in their attempts to understand the tenses of the English language, as well as those who are at the beginning of their study of this area of grammar. The material of the course is presented in an accessible form. Each theoretical block is accompanied by a Summary subsection, where all the main information of the chapter is presented concisely. After studying the theoretical part, readers have the opportunity to complete exercises that will help develop a sense of the language and bring the skill of using grammatical constructions to automatism. In the 'Appendix' section, there are tables of English tenses and a list of the most common irregular verbs, grouped by a particular principle for easy and quick assimilation. The proposed scheme will help you remember these words like a multiplication table!
