I´m from Mexico and is an excellent class!!! Thanks John

@CBJAMPA I think that you can't use present perfect in your case.You have "WHEN" and that is a specific time.That's why you have to use Simple Past.
Best wishes.

Hi John,
Wonder if you could tell me if the following is correct (or acceptable): "When I've lived abroad" or " When I've studied foreign languages".
Thanks, an keep up the brilliant word!
Greetings from Brazil

nice video, just one comment. I was taught in high school that when we use time adverbs like "today", "this week" or "this month" we should also use Present Perfect and not Simple Past
-
That's a minor mistake that most teachers make as they write on the board quickly not because they don't know the grammar. There's no need to nitpick when the person so graciously shared his grammar knowledge with us. I liked the way he presented the tenses, and I learned a lot from him.

Blue Moon. What you are saying is not always true. For example, "Today was a good day" is a correct simple past sentence. Or, "This month went fast" is another correct sentence using simple past.
Also, the examples you give are nouns and noun phrases, not adverbs. "This month" and "this week" are both noun phrases = demonstrative pronoun + noun. Today is a noun and makes a simple, past tense declarative sentence using the 'be' verb as a linking verb. "Today was a good day."
