In this unit I reviewed the present forms of verbs, their form, usage and common mistakes with each. While much of this came very naturally to me, I noticed I had a hard time remembering which tense was used for which specific scenario, as well as identifying WHY an error was wrong. I learned the present tense of English through copying other's speech patterns, rather than from a textbook so it was often hard for me to articulate why something was wrong. I intuitively knew when a sentence was wrong, or if the wrong tense was being used. However it was harder to justify this with reason. This also made me think about the different methodologies of teaching English. I wondered weather it would be more helpful for a student if the teacher were to explain the grammatical reason why a mistake was wrong, or if it would be better to simply point out the error and provide an example of a correct form.
