My name is Alina and I am an English teacher. 
Helping you understand and improve your English language is my aim. 
I have a TESOL diploma(Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages - like myself) and a TYLT certificate(Teaching English to Young Learners and Teenagers). But those are just some formalities we need, Ive spoken English since I was 11 years old and have never stopped loving the language. 
Apart from English I also speak Romanian(my native language) and some Spanish(hola! 😊) 
You’ll be seeing lots of helpful materials around here with explanations and practices. Let me know if you need help with anything else and we’ll work it out together. 
I’ll see you around! 😊]]> 2019-09-06 05:48:10 UTC https://padlet.com/englishwithmsa/ynjkfy5dirgb/wish/380756891 Drama verb englishwithmsa https://padlet.com/englishwithmsa/ynjkfy5dirgb/wish/380763282 Have you ever heard of that? I bet you didn’t because that’s my own way of calling the verb “to Be”.
Just look at how many times it changes, from be to am to are to is. And that is just for Simple Present Tense 😬.
Something like this: I am
                           You are
                           He/she/it is
                           We/you/they are
For Simple Past Tense it changes to was and were.
So it goes like this: I was
                          You/he/she/it/we/they were
And if you think that’s not dramatic yet check this out:      

“You were going to the library yesterday.” 
But
“If I were to do this, I would have lost a lot of money.”😬 - we used “I were” here because it shows a hypothetical (a “might happen situation”) situation. We have no idea what would happen because the action hasn’t taken place.
Also the verb “to be” can be used as an auxiliary (helping) one when we use Present Continuous or Past Continuous.
We use “been” for Perfect Continuous tenses:
I have been visiting him too many times. 
So there you go, my “drama verb” is quite a verb. 
Have any questions? Need more explanations? 
Let me know and we’ll work it out. 
See you later alligator 🐊!
