Temporary situations:

Julie is living in Paris for a few months (usually she lives in London).

Situations which are slowly changing:
I'm getting better and better at speaking English.

Temporary or new habits:

I'm drinking too much coffee these days because I'm so busy at work.

Annoying habits (usually with 'always'):
My flatmate is always leaving the kitchen in a mess!

Future events which are part of a timetable:

My plane leaves at eight tonight.

To talk about the future after certain words ('when' 'until' 'after' 'before' 'as soon as'):
I'll call you when I get home.

Remember:

We use the present simple with stative verbs. We can't use any continuous tense (including the present continuous tense, of course) with stative verbs.
