Sentences are given in the simple present tense. Change them into the present continuous tense.

Notes

We make sentences in the simple present tense by using the first form of the verb. Note that when the subject is a singular noun or pronoun, the verb takes the marker –s in the simple present tense.
We make present continuous tense forms by putting is, am or are before the –ing form of the verb.

Change the following sentences into the present continuous tense.

1. I write novels.

2. She works at a bank.

3. We buy vegetables from the market.

4. The boys play in the garden.

5. She writes with her left hand.

6. My mother makes delicious cookies.

7. My sister lives abroad.

8. She works hard to make a living.

9. She speaks English.

10. The river flows under the bridge.

11. Birds live in nests.

12. Doctors treat patients.
