Example

I usually get out of bed at 6 a.m. I think this is way too early, but otherwise I'll be late for class, which starts at 8.30 a.m.

Right now, I am explaining the Past Simple by giving an example. And, like the pro I am, I am doing the same with the Present Continuous. 

Grammar: Present Simple and Present Continuous

Present simple ( I DO)	Present continuous (I AM DOING)
Voor feiten/ dingen die altijd waar zijn	Wanneer iets gaande is en nog niet is gestopt
Voor gewoontes (gebruik een tijdsaanduiding)	Wanneer je met iets bent begonnen en zit er nog middenin, maar je doet het nu niet
Voor korte acties die NU gebeuren	Wanneer een verandering bezig is
Voor tijdschema's
