Description: Download a free PDF summary of this lesson by accessing the Anglo-Link PDF library at start.anglo-link.com/pdf-library I'm always doing!?? Can we use a frequency adverb in the Present Continuous tense? We often think that frequency adverbs (always, often, sometimes, rarely, never) can only be used with the Present Simple tense. In fact, they can be used with several tenses, depending on the context. In this lesson, we'll look at all English tenses and see which ones we can use these adverbs with. We'll end the lesson with a typical conversation using these adverbs in different tenses. Interested in joining my complete course to reach an advanced (C1) level of spoken and written fluency?

I’m originally from Iran, and I live and work in the U.K. I’m a qualified English teacher and teacher trainer, but that’s not what makes me good at my job. I just love teaching! It makes me feel good when I can share something I’ve learned with others. That’s why I still love teaching English after 40 years of doing it! English is such a vast and complicated language! My passion is to make it as easy as possible for others to learn. My students always praise my ‘clear explanations’ and 'structured method'. I suppose I can explain things well because I’m not a native speaker. I’ve struggled with English grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary myself. I’ve had to work out the rules and learn the exceptions, and I just love sharing my own discoveries with others like me who are learning English as a foreign language. Thank you so much, everyone, for all the ‘likes’ and your lovely and supportive comments! I'm so grateful for your support!
