[@JamaniTJohnson]

Here is my sentence: I have been learning to become a videographer since last year. For example; I went to college 6 years ago in 2018. I joined in Radio Television, and learned how to control the camera from behind. I was a TV camera operator who participated in my position, wearing a headset to listen what the producer was telling me to do.

[@ellii]

Great use of the present perfect progressive! When you're training for a career, it's more natural to use "studying" and "be" (I have been studying to be a videographer).

[@BigBoy-jb6xs]

When you say it can also be a continuing action into the future ....doesn't that make it perfect continuous ???

[@ellii]

Great question! The difference between the present perfect and the present perfect progressive (continuous) is related to future time (uses/examples 2 and 3).
Here are the uses:
Use the present perfect for (1) an action that happened in the past at an undefined time, or (2) an action that started in the past and continued to the present and MIGHT continue in the future. Use the present perfect progressive for (3) an action that started in the past, continues to the present, and WILL continue in the future for sure.
Here are some examples:
(1) I have already studied Chapter 5. (PP - finished action)
(2) I have lived in Colombia for the past two years. (PP - focus is on the last two years - we're not sure if the speaker will continue living there or will move)
(3) I have been living in Colombia for the past two years. (PPP - focus is on the last two years and the future - we're sure the speaker will continue living there)

[@Aajjxx]

How do you improve your grammar when you're not in the mood to practice?

[@ellii]

This is a great question, Shou. You can try these tips:
- Watch videos! Videos are usually more entertaining than a textbook or audio recording, so they might motivate you to study.
- Remind yourself of your language-learning goals. Do you want a new job, to live in another country, or simply to communicate with more people? Thinking of your big-picture goals might remind you why you need to study.
- Set rewards. For example, if you study for half an hour, go for a 10-minute stroll. Or if you study for two hours, reward yourself with dinner out with friends or your favorite show.
- Practice a language in ways other than studying. Talking with friends or sending text messages in English is still practice, and you're still using grammar, but it's much more fun!
Hope that helps and happy studying!
