What to Focus On

  • The Simple Future Tense talks about future actions.
  • Two common forms: 'will' and 'going to'.
  • This chapter focuses on the 'going to' form.

  • Structure: Subject + am/is/are + going to + base verb
  • Use 'am' with 'I', 'is' with singular subjects, 'are' with plural subjects
  • The main verb is always in its base form (e.g., go, eat, play)

  • To express a plan or intention made before speaking
  • To make a prediction when there is clear evidence in the present
  • Shows future action based on current plans or visible signs

Common Mistakes to Avoid

‘Going to’ is only used for plans, not predictions.

‘I am going to’ and ‘I will’ mean the same thing and can be used interchangeably.

You must always use 'will' after 'I think' in future sentences.
