• As you can see all the previous sentences have the same structure. They all have two verbs: TO BE and a GERUND (gerundio in Spanish- cantando, (singing) jugando (playing)…)
• In continuous tenses you always need these two verbs

I like habits and routines. I always do the same things and at the same time. Forexample, I always drink two glasses of milk in themorning and I usually arrive at school at twenty five past eight . I often wear jeans and T-shirts. I love pop music. I also love animals and plants. I have a beautiful garden. I live with my parents and my brother, The Present Continuous Guy. He is very different from me. He never arrives on time for lunch. He likes new clothes and fashion, and he doesn't listen to pop music. He plays hard rock in a group called "Metal Bananas" . He is making noise now because he is playing the guitar
