As a native English speaker I never think about tenses when in conversation. Before this unit if anyone asked me how many tenses there were in English I would have responded 3: past present, and future. This unit while very interesting and eye opening, was a little hard to wrap my head around. I can understand why this would be hard for non-native speakers to have a hard time learning and understanding, it took me a couple days of studying to understand it, and I've been speaking English all my life. I can understand why this unit focused on errors that students make, because there is a lot to understand and work out. Living in Germany, there are many people I talk to, who speak English very well, but the issue that most people have with English are the tenses, they will say something like \"I go to the store yesterday\". After learning that there are 12 different tenses that non-native speakers need to learn I understand why people use the Present Simple form for everything. This is a difficult section, but a very important one. I think that when teaching this will be a section that will take a long time to teach, so I'm happy that there were different ideas on how to teach tenses, otherwise both the students and teachers will get bored.
