Present Simple and Present Continuous
New Update: EC offers various English courses, including online English speaking courses 'I surf / I am surfing.' What's the difference between the Present Simple / Present Continuous and how to use them. We use the present simple tense when we want to talk about fixed habits or routines – things that don’t change. We use the present continuous to talk about actions which are happening at the present moment, but will soon finish. Compare these two statements: (present simple) I play tennis. (present simple) ‘I play tennis’ tells us that playing tennis is something the speaker always does. (present continuous/ progressive) ‘I am playing tennis’ tells us that the speaker is playing tennis right now.
