| Abstract |
For many learners of English as a second or foreign language, one of their
main goals for learning English is so that they will be able to communicate
more efficiently in English to others. Hence, learning English takes on a
communicative purpose, perhaps indirectly ignoring or side-lining the
importance of grammar. Consequently, learners find it difficult to fully grasp
important aspects of it such as tenses. “Tenses Pool Vol.1” aims to eliminate
this stumbling block by providing an interactive platform to learn, engage and
practice the rules of tenses in English. Besides being an interactive software
with practice exercises targeted at elementary learners, Tenses Pool will also
be filled with relevant examples designed in a context familiar to Malaysian
learners. Volume 1 covers the aspects of Present Tense and after mastering
this level it is hoped that learners will be able to continue with the other
aspects of tenses in English to be presented in future volumes of Tenses
Pool.
