What to Focus On

  • Describes an action that will be in progress in the future.
  • Used with a specific time in the future.
  • Formed with 'will be' or 'shall be' + verb + -ing.

  • Structure: Subject + will be/shall be + verb + -ing
  • 'Will be' is used with all subjects in modern English.
  • 'Shall be' is formal and used with 'I' and 'we'.

  • Used for actions in progress at a future time.
  • Used for planned events and schedules.
  • Shows interruption of one action by another.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The future continuous tense is used for any future action, even if it's not happening at a specific time.

We can use 'will be + verb' without -ing form.

We use 'shall be' for all first-person sentences (I, we).
