絶対に犯してはいけない3つの間違い *英語の文法*

Here are some mistakes my lovely students always make.

Do you sometimes make them too?

Never make them again after reading this! (Or, almost never :))

1. 'There'

I'm going to there. --> I'm going there.
I went to there. --> I went there

2. Past Tense!!

A few days ago, I go to the beach. --> A few days ago, I went to the beach.
When I was young, I can play the piano. --> When I was young, I could play the piano.

3. After/Before
Two ways to use this:

Before/After I eat dinner, I study English.
Before/After eating dinner, I study English.

Before go to work, eat breakfast. --> Before I go to work, I eat breakfast.

Hi Yara! Using past tense correctly is difficult for me! I’ll try!
1. Last week, I went for dinner with my friends. We watched a movie together and we ate spaghetti at a restaurant.
2. I heard that Okinawa is beautiful and very different from other parts of Japan. I'd like to go there!
3. Every morning, after I wake up, I make coffee with my awesome Sage coffee machine!
