Verb Tenses 2 🔒

This 12-question quiz keeps building your control of English verb tenses, including the present perfect continuous.

You fill in the correct verb form in lines such as The instructor ___ the students cheating on their exam this morning. and Tricia ___ from Harvard university next year., plus a few correct-or-incorrect sentences to judge.

One of the judging items pairs a past action with a future time word, and spotting why that cannot work is the kind of thing that sharpens your eye for tense.

It suits learners ready to handle more than just simple past and present.

Recommended level: intermediate.
