I used this video/audio flash cards to teach my neighbors' 13 years old son and his 2 classmates the Present Simple tense. Although, the students have learned present simple at school they didn't internalize it properly. They were mixing present simple with present continuous. Hence, I used these video/audio flash cards to help them. First, I explained the way how and where to use present simple and present continuous and then I played the video/audio file to let the students practice and internalize the material properly. Overall, I want to say that I found this material to be very helpful for both students and teachers especially when there is a confusion between present simple and present continuous tenses.
