SIMPLE PAST or PRESENT PERFECT? When + how to use them!

“I worked” or “I have worked”? “I went” or “I have gone”? What’s the difference? If you confuse the simple past and present perfect tenses, watch this lesson. You’ll learn how to use both tenses (the structure) and when to use them (the usage). You’ll understand which tense to use in terms of time, action, and signal words. Most importantly, you’ll upgrade your English by mastering these two important and commonly confused English tenses.

Thanks!

Today is my first day ever to become member of http://www.engvid.com and have taken three lessons viz i) only two words to convey some idea or situation; ii) Different British accents and dialects to understand a native speaker; and iii) simple, past and present perfect tenses.I feel the mentors are competent to communicate the essense through lessons in a simple but understandable way.
