  • Main accent variations

PAST TENSES

The difference between the Indefinite and the Imperfect past tenses can be a bit difficult to grasp, especially for English speakers, who mainly use the one past tense (Simple Past). 

In this workshop we will look at the Indefinite & Imperfect tenses in detail, clarifying the differences (and more importantly, making some useful comparisons with the way we use the past in English). We will also give you practical tips for learning when to use each once and for all.

CONTENT COVERED:

  • A revision of the regular and irregular verb forms in the Indefinite and Imperfect tenses.
  • The uses of each tense
  • The contrast between them
  • Games and speaking activities to put them into practice
