Hi there, my dear friends!
Today, I’d like to share with you a series of videos you’ll find really useful, since you will need these grammar structures for giving advice. In fact, the videos are about the Zero conditional (yes, it exists!) and the First conditional. As you will see, these two structures are extremely simple and easy to use.
The Zero conditional :
The First conditional :

Dear students,
Today, I would like to share with you the following video and Genially presentation on the formation and use of the Past Simple. Thanks to them you’ll be able to learn how to use it in your written compositions, dialogues and monologues.
Enjoy!!!
Today we have a new lesson. What is the Present Simple?
Well, we use the Present Simple for talking daily actions or what we do every day. it is very easy to use.
We need a subject pronoun (I, you, he, she, it, we, you, they) and then we write/say the verb. Be careful with he, she and it. With these three subject pronouns we add -S to the verb; for example, I watch TV every day / He watches TV every day.
Watch this video for more information.
Apart from this, we can also use frequency adverbs or expressions of frequency. They are different and are used in different ways.
Frequency adverbs always go between the subject and the verb (e.g. I never go to the supermarket on Sunday), except with verb To Be (in this case, it goes after the verb; e.g., I am never late for school).
What are the most traditional and frequent frequency adverbs? Always, Usually, Quite often, Very often, Often, Hardly Ever, Never.
Expressions of frequency always go at the end of the sentence; for instance, I go to the gym three times a week.
The most frequently used expressions of frequency are Once/Twice/Three (change the number as you wish) times a year (a month, a week, a day, etc), every day.
You have everything you need to know in this Genially presentation.
I hope you enjoy.
Regards.
