    The document provides examples of using the present continuous and present simple tenses in English. It shows how the present continuous is used to describe temporary or ongoing actions happening now (e.g. "I'm working at home today") while the present simple is used for habitual or repeated actions (e.g. "We usually go to school on Tuesdays"). It demonstrates this through pairs of sentences comparing the usual/habitual case and the current/ongoing case, filling in the verbs in their proper present tense forms.
