Topics are ordered by level, with one focused idea per page and examples you can reuse.
Your first A1 English grammar lesson: introduce yourself and others, talk about age, feelings and location, and build statements, negatives, questions and short answers with am, is and are. Then practise and take a separate lesson test.
A1 English lesson two: replace repeated names with clear subject pronouns, choose the speaker’s or listener’s point of view, and match pronouns with am, is and are. Learn with a table, examples, a dialogue and a separate test.
A1 English lesson three: choose possessive adjectives from the owner’s perspective, build phrases such as my new book, and distinguish its from it’s. Includes a seven-form table, examples, a dialogue, practice and a separate account-based test.
The past simple describes actions and events that started and finished in the past. With regular verbs, we usually add -ed to form positive sentences. For negatives and questions, we use did or didn't followed by the base form of the verb. Some regular verbs also require spelling changes when -ed is added.
Irregular verbs do not form the past simple by simply adding -ed. Instead, they have special past forms, such as go → went and see → saw. Use the past form in affirmative sentences, but use the base form after did and didn't: Did you go? I didn't go.
Use didn’t to make most past simple sentences negative and did to form questions. After did and didn’t, the main verb always stays in its base form. At A2 level, you also need to ask for details about past events using question words such as what, where, when, why, who, and how.
Use the present perfect with for and since to talk about situations that started in the past and continue now. Use for to express a duration, such as for three years, and since to identify a starting point, such as since 2023. The key distinction is duration versus starting point.
The Present Perfect Continuous describes an activity that started in the past and continues now, or a recent activity with a present result. It is formed with have/has been + verb-ing. At B1 level, it is especially useful for talking about duration, ongoing activities, recent actions, and situations with since and for.
Use used to to describe repeated past habits or past states that are no longer true or typical now. The main pattern is used to + base verb. For negatives and questions, use didn't use to and Did ... use to? This structure is especially useful for comparing past situations with the present.
Clear storytelling combines past simple, past continuous, past perfect, and past perfect continuous. Learn how to show event order, background, duration, cause, and narrative pace.
The Future Perfect is used to describe an action that will already be completed by a specific point in the future. It is formed with will have + past participle and often appears with expressions such as by, by the time, and before. This lesson explains its forms, uses, contrasts, and common mistakes.
The Future Perfect Continuous describes an activity that will have been continuing for a period of time up to a specific point in the future. It is formed with will have been + verb-ing and is especially useful when the duration, continuity, or ongoing nature of a future activity is more important than its result.
At C1 level, choosing a verb form is not only about locating an event in past, present, or future time. Tense establishes the temporal reference, while aspect shows how the speaker views the event: as complete, ongoing, connected to another time, repeated, temporary, or continuing over a period.
At C1 level, modal verbs do more than express ability, permission, or obligation. They help speakers control degrees of certainty, possibility, expectation, criticism, distance, and personal judgment. This lesson explains how must, may, might, could, should, will, and would create subtle differences in meaning across present and past contexts.
Hedging helps you make claims less absolute, while stance shows your attitude, evaluation, or level of commitment to an idea. At C1 level, the goal is to match the strength of your language to the strength of your evidence by using modal verbs, reporting verbs, adverbs, and carefully chosen stance expressions.
Grammar variation means that more than one form can be correct, while different forms may sound more natural in different regions, registers or situations. At C2 level, the goal is to recognise these patterns, understand their distribution, and choose forms that suit the audience, context and variety of English you are using.
Register-shifting is the ability to adapt language deliberately to audience, relationship, medium, and purpose. At C2 level, this involves more than choosing formal or informal vocabulary: you must control syntax, directness, politeness, stance, interpersonal distance, and lexical choice while preserving the intended meaning and maintaining stylistic consistency.
Idiomatic grammar patterns are fixed or semi-fixed structures whose meaning cannot always be predicted from ordinary grammar rules alone. At C2 level, mastering them means understanding not only their form, but also their pragmatic meaning, register, and constraints. Common examples include It's high time, would rather, be that as it may, and there's no telling.
Start at A1 if your foundations are uncertain; otherwise choose the topic that causes the most mistakes in your own sentences.
No. Understanding the rule is the first step; you also need retrieval and sentence production so the structure becomes usable.
The public grammar guides are available to read. Some interactive or advanced practice features may depend on your account plan.
Read one topic, then apply the structure in JadoLearn practice and lessons.
