I appreciate your english dear .I am becoming better english @@ezaldeanalhakimi8247
Cool congratulations
Young lady, you are a great teacher. You taught us the basic differences between the present perfect and the past so clearly. Now that I could go back to my grammar book, and those rules made me much easier to comprehend. The biggest challenge is when I speech in English, when to use the right tenses. I have been struggling all these years in the English speaking world. Keep up your good work. Many Thanks.
How many hours do you spend creating such incredible videos 😯?
There is a lot of effort and creativity.
You are a real artist 🎨 💙💙
I agree with you. It's a hard work
She doesn't seem to use a teleprompter. That's a lot of memorising. That's hard work indeed.
What I always miss is a better sound. It's not that it's bad but it could be better. I'm an audio person so I can be picky. Just as a curiosity, she has a video where she or her team forgot to turn on the mic and someone decided to use the audio f4om the camera. Horrible! But it's something that happens a lot. Still, the decision of not recording the video again was... reckless, in my opinion. I bet she had a reason for it. She's great!
You are the best
You mentioned the points that most of the people were confusing.
After 13 years of learning english, I still somehow need to watch this video in order to past my exam. I have to say I feel quite embarrassed
Arnel explains the topic that completely focuses on where students make mistakes and goes beyond the grammar covering everything comprehensively...this is which is not at all taught in schools all they do is rote learning ....Arnel is the G.O.A.T
God of all time

Arnel Ma'am I like the way you teach , you make English grammar more easier than it is. I don't want to speak too soon, but i suppose I'll be good at English.
What subtle differences exist between these two verbal tenses!, but you managed to explain them crystal clear.
Thank you once again for sharing this video.
Literally the best video on CZcams on Present perfect vs Past Simple. Well done 👏
Excellent explanation! Thank for demystifying this subject, I now truly get the sense of it. Again, thank you.
Teacher is so beautiful, my focus is always on the teacher’s beauty, so I am often distracted
This is THE BEST lesson I have seen - and have seen hundreds
I've been teaching English as a second language for 10 years and I have never seen a better explantion about these two tenses. I always use your video when we study the present perfect and the simple past. I think learning them at the same time is quite enlightening. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your nice comment Tiago!! I really love hearing from other teachers :) :)
Can't emphasize enough how helpful these videos are.... Thank you so much ma'am from bottom of my heart for giving us your precious time.... 🙏🙏🙏

Arnel, thank you a lot! You help me greatly! My Russian students like your kind of explanation and use your videos for improving their skills. They are empressed and they admire you, too.😍
Thank you very much for teaching us this in a simple manner. I got the difference between simple past tense and present perfect tense. 😍😍
I can not but admire you. Any word would be less to praise your teaching skill. You are really something exceptional Ma'am . Your lessons are as clear as crystal that gives nothing but precise perception. From India🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏🙏.
One of the most helpful information. Thanks for being such a productive teacher. I really needed a lesson like that. Thanks again
I always stand impressed Infront of the way you are simplifying things. I do really appreciate your efforts Mrs Arnel. Drawing from your wonderful and creative teaching techniques has saved a great deal of my teaching puzzling moments. Accept my best greetings from Morocco.🌹🌹
I was so confused about these tenses, I didn’t know when I have to use the past simple or the present perfect. You’re really the best teacher in this world. Thank you so much 😊 today I’ve learned very very import things. Love this channel ☺️
Guess what
You can use present perfect with these time expressions such as
In the last month.
For example:
She has eaten that chicken in the last week.
She ate that chicken last week.
Sometimes the grammar is weird but is the rule.
you're the best english that I've met in my whole life. thank you and please keep going.😘😘
Best grammar tutorial. Easy to understand. Thank you for making this video.
WHY DOES MY TEACHER NEED 10000000 YEARS TO EXPLAIN THIS ALL 💀👺🗿
Ty so much for that. I asked for it long ago, even though the video about the present perfect already existed.
As a general rule of thumb, simple past is used for past things/events which are specific and exclusively belonging to the past, while present perfect is for things/event when time precision isn't really needed or such thing/event still may happen until now/affects the present.
I'm a native Portuguese speaker (from Brazil) and my language almost only uses "perfect and imperfect past", whose major differences are about such things/events being able or not to be done again....while the connection to the present is expressed by using the past continuous tense or like the informal English (using the simple past because it's a specific and finished action in the past despite influencing the present).
this is the first time understood what is the present perfect !!!
👍
This is The best video i have ever seen about past simple and present Perfect. Thank A lot!! Take Care! Regards from Poland :)
I've enjoyed all your lessons immensely, Arnel! Thank you so much for all your hard work in enhancing our English knowledge. This lesson in particular blessed me a lot ☺️
