Present Simple Tense

We use the present simple for things that are true in general, or for things that happen sometimes or all the time:

She likes black tea.
I start work at 9 o'clock and finish at 5:30.
Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius.
We usually visit our friends on the weekend.

After he/she/it an "s" is added to the verb as in these examples:

She speaks excellent French.
He sometimes calls her "my darling".
It makes perfect sense to me.

To make a negative sentence we use the following structure:

subject (I/you/we/they) + auxiliary verb (don't) + main verb (infinitive)
subject (he/she/it) + auxiliary verb (doesn't) + main verb (infinitive)

Examples:

I don't speak Chinese.
You don't work very hard.
She doesn't call me every day.

To make a question we also use do after I/you/we/they and does after he/she/it:

Do you speak Chinese?
Does she work here?
What do you do for a living?
How do you usually get to work?

Express the Future

going to
This way you can express a personal intention or make a prediction about what you know/feel/see as in these sentences:
I am going to stop smoking this year. The sea is going to be very rough this afternoon, so don't go swimming.

Future Simple
Back to "will" and "shall". With these two words plus the infinitive of a verb you can express: a future fact, a sudden decision, an offer, a threat, a promise, an opinion about the future, a probability especially after think, suppose, expect, doubt if.

Tomorrow will be my birthday.
It's all right I'll get the shopping.
I will take you in the car if you like.
I'll stand by you whatever happens.

Present Continuous
This is almost the same as "going to" but it's not quite as personal.

Present Simple
We use this when we are thinking of the certain future, something already arranged as in a timetable or programme:

Your train leaves in ten minutes.


Is to/Are to
These are used to express an instruction or something arranged officially.

The finance ministers are to meet next month to discuss the crisis.
