Explanation:

• Verb Tenses are different forms of verbs describing time frames of something that happened in the past, happening at present or will happen in the future.

• By expanding these three main types of verb tenses (time references), we get 16 forms of tenses.
• The present tense indicates the current action that is going to be performed now.
• Simple Present or Present indefinite Tense follows a Structure Subject + Verb 1 + s/es- to tell about things that happen continually in the present, like every day, every week, or every month. We use the simple present tense for anything that happens often or is factual/habitual.

• Present Continuous/ Progressive Tense follows a Structure- Subject + is/am/are + Verb+ing- to tell about an action or a state that is continuing to happen right now.

Simple present tense:

• When you use a verb to describe events that continuously occur in the present, such as every day, every week, or every month, you are using the simple present tense.
• Any event that occurs frequently or is factual is expressed in the simple present tense.
• Here are a few illustrations: I go to school every day.

Present continuous tense:

• The present continuous is a verb tense employed in modern English that combines the present tense with the continuous aspect. It is also known as the present progressive or present imperfect.
• It is made up of the verb's present participle and the present tense form of be.
• When a verb is in the present continuous tense, it means that something is happening right now, regularly, and might continue in the future.
