ENGLISH VERB TENSES FREE
Do you know about the verb tenses? What's the difference between the present perfect and the past simple? Are you sure? How about the past perfect?
Many students have problems with verb tenses. But they aren't really very difficult, I promise. Here you'll find really clear examples and explanations, so you can easily review all the English tenses - firstly how to make them (the 'form'), secondly, how to use them (the 'use').
Useful Expressions - Habits
Ten Expressions to Use In Speaking And Writing

7. I have a habit of..

How To Use These Phrases In Your English
Phrases 1, 3, 5, 7, 8 and 10 are followed by a gerund. (-ing form)
Phrase 2 is followed by the infinitive of the main verb (e.g. I often tend to watch TV in the evenings.)
Phrase 4 needs a noun or gerund in the blank space.
Phrases 1 - 3 are quite neutral. The habit is neither a good one or bad one.
Phrase 4 is a bit more positive and phrases 5 and 6 show that the speaker likes doing these things and tries to do them a lot.
Phrase 7 suggests that the speaker often does something but that it's not intentional. It may be a bad habit.
Phrases 8 to 10 are habits that the speaker thinks are bad but cannot stop.
