Talking about the future
English doesn't have a future tense. We can use several forms to
express different ideas about the future.

experience

can be making an offer, a promise or describing an intention):
- All right, I'll help you with the housework.
- I think I'll go for a walk. I have a slight headache.
- I won't go to the party after all.
- I'll always be your friend.
- I promise I won't be late.
- to make a request or invitation:
- Will you wait for me?

We use be going to:
- to make a prediction about a future event because of
something we can see now:
- Look at those clouds; it's going to rain.
- He isn't going to pass the test. (we can see that he doesn't
study much)
- to express our intention to do something:
- I'm going to change my lifestyle radically.
- I'm going to study medicine.
- My parents are going to move to the country.
- Are you going to take up the new post? Yes, I am. /No, I'm not.
We use the Present Continuous
- to talk about future events that we have fixed or arranged:
-I'm starting a new job in June. (the arrangements have already
been made)
- We're going to the theatre tonight. (we've got the tickets)
We use the Present Simple
- to talk about future official events and timetables which we cannot
change:
- The conference begins on the 23rd of January.
- My plane leaves at 3.30 p.m. tomorrow.
- When does the concert start tomorrow?
Past Perfect Tense
The past perfect expresses an activity that was complete
before another activity or time in the past.
Sam arrived at 10:00. Ann left at 9:30.
- Ann had already left when Sam arrived.
Adverb clauses with by the time are frequently used with the past
perfect in the main clause.
- By the time Sam got there, Ann had already left.
If either before or after is used in the sentence, the past perfect is
often not necessary because the time relationship is already clear.
The simple past may be used.
- Sam had left before Ann got there. = Sam left before Ann got
there.
- After the guests had left, I went to bed. = After the guests left, I
went to bed.
