About Verb Tenses Overview
GoConqr OriginalWhat the page covers
This page brings together resources on English verb tenses and the grammar around them. The present tenses are well represented, with items such as Present Simple vs Present Continuous and Present Simple and Daily Routines. The past is covered by simple past, past continuous, past perfect and narrative tenses. You will also find future forms, passive voice, modal verbs, phrasal verbs, gerunds and infinitives, wish clauses and reported speech.
Where to start
If tenses are new to you, begin with the basics: the verb to be, then the present simple. The Verb To Be slides and the Present Simple notes are good first stops. Next, move to the past with the simple past mind map, which sets out was and were, regular verbs with -ed, and there was and there were.
- Present simple and present continuous.
- Simple past, then past continuous.
- Present perfect and present perfect continuous.
- Past perfect and narrative tenses.
- Future forms, passive voice and modals.
Using quizzes and maps together
Read a mind map first to see the structure of a tense, such as the subject plus have or has plus been in the present perfect continuous map. Then take a quiz on the same tense. The quiz about Simon Nixon, for example, asks you to choose between present simple and present continuous in a short article. Wrong answers show you which map to reread.
Flashcards help with memory work. Several decks cover regular and irregular verbs, and one covers the pronunciation of regular past tense verbs.
Levels and exams
Most resources are at secondary level. Some mention exams and frameworks such as GCSE, IB, IELTS, TOEFL, CEFR, KET and FCE, so you can look for material close to your own course. The page sits in the Grammar: Verbs and Tenses strand of English language.
Choose one tense, open a mind map and test yourself with a quiz today.
Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I open first?
If you are starting out, try the Verb To Be slides or the present simple notes, then move on to the simple past mind map. Each step builds on the one before. Once a tense feels familiar, a quiz on the same tense will show what still needs work.
What do the mind maps cover?
The mind maps cover present, past and future tenses, plus passive voice, modal verbs, gerunds and infinitives, wish clauses, reported speech and used to. The simple past map, for instance, explains was and were, regular verbs with -ed and there was or there were. There are over 18,000 maps on the page.
Are the resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.
Which levels and exams do these resources suit?
Most of the resources are at secondary level, so they suit school students. Some mention exams and frameworks such as GCSE, IB, IELTS, TOEFL, CEFR, KET, FCE and CAE. Check each resource to see whether it matches your course. Teachers can also use them as ready-made class material.
Where can I practise irregular verbs?
Several flashcard decks focus on irregular verbs, including ones for the simple past form and for the past participle. There are also decks on regular verbs and on regular and irregular verbs in the past simple. Use them alongside a past simple quiz to test what you remember.
What if I cannot find the tense I need?
Try a nearby topic first. A tense often appears inside a comparison, such as past simple and present perfect, or inside a mixed tenses quiz. If it is still missing, you can make your own quiz, mind map or flashcards with a free account.
