I will begin by explaining the perfect tenses: Present perfect: Structure: Subject + Have/has + main verb in participle. Subject (noun or a pronoun example: I, She, They) In the present perfect the verb "have" is an auxiliary verb, it helps the verb and when spoken "have / has" are often contracted /v/ and /s/ and the main verb in past participle. I will explain that we use the perfect tense when there is a connection between the present and the past using the sentence from the text: "she has been a teacher for more than seventy-five years." Past perfect: Structure: Had + Past Participle/ Had + Adverb + Past Participle 1. She had passed her driving test. 2. She finally passed her driving test. Had is an auxiliary verb so it is usually contracted and connected to the subject as /əd/ "she'd finally passed her driving test" I will explain that we use the past perfect when we talk about two events that happened in the past, when one event happened before the other event. Future perfect: Structure: Will + Have + Past Participle Will and Have are both auxiliary verbs, but as Will is connected to the subject it is often contracted as /əl/ "He'll have seen 20,000 films." I will explain that the future perfect is used when we refer to events that will be finished at a specific point in the future.
