This is the first your video which I understand without subtitles. 👏☺️
I´ve just been watching your video an I´m really impressed.
I knew pretty much the use of this tense, but I didn´t know that in
certain situations the present perfect continuous can be used for past actions.
Now I have a deeper understanding. Thanks a lot!
You are an angel, that's what you are.
I must be lucky to be a 'modest' follower for such a great great teacher like you.

Splendid. Waiting for the past perfect continuous tense.
Hello Gideon , and welcome back with another IMPORTANT , FUNNY and AMAZING video lesson. You know which is my opinion about your video lessons, and i won't change my mind. I'd like to say that NOTHING COMPARES TO YOU. I 'm sure you know what i mean…. and to cut a long story short, i 'll just say that " ALL YOUR VIDEO LESSONS ARE MY CUP OF TEA". Let me also say "THANK YOU" because "YOU'RE AN OLD HAND AT THIS" (as an compliment)and your way of teaching is an EXTRAORDINARY ONE , A PERFECT ONE ,just like you. So ,there you are , thank you for this video lesson, stay mellow you too and i'll see you soon.
Never thought that English grammar could be explained in such a way. You are quite a romantic, sir! Lots of thanks for your efforts!
Great lesson as usual. I've got a question: is it possible to use another tense instead of the PPC in the sentence "I'm tired because I've been working all day"?
The best explanation ever on this topic.
An impressive explanation of one of the most confusing English tense and related subjects. I appreciate it.
I like the way you give explanation, and I can easily understand what you are saying without subtitles.i m glad to be able to do this
Thank u for your effort to give us English rules in a simple way
Hi, thank you for your video. 🌸 There is just one thing where I disagree. I think it is not correct to say that the present perfect is a past tense whereas the present perfect continuous is a past tense that also includes present time. As you stated in your video about the difference between past simple and present perfect, the present perfect is also used to indicate a link between the present and the past. The time of action is in the past, before now, but not specified, and we are more interested in the result than the action itself. By using the present perfect continuous we are interested in the activity ( which may not have been finished). Both tenses have a connection with NOW. Greetings from a German follower. 🇬🇧🇩🇪
I understand that because I've been listening carefully your explanation.
It's great ,thanks
This is the first time I've been getting such understanding about these topics… with my heart thank you a lot and greetings from Panama city,central america.
