0:05 | Hey, I'm Andy, and I teach English. |
0:09 | Today's lesson is why I became a teacher |
0:12 | in the past perfect. |
0:16 | I had finished school and was writing a book. |
0:21 | One day, I realized I had spent most of my life writing. |
0:27 | It was time to try something new. |
0:31 | My friend Bianca had taught kids at an after-school program. |
0:38 | So, I decided to try teaching. |
0:41 | As it turned out, I had just started a new career. |
0:48 | Why use the past perfect? |
0:51 | One reason is to share your experience. |
0:56 | When do you use the past perfect? |
1:00 | You use it to give reasons from the past for a present event. |
1:07 | And how do you use the past perfect? |
1:12 | Write a subject plus "had" plus a past participle. |
1:18 | For example, I had finished...They had started... |
1:25 | Last of all, what is a past participle? |
1:30 | It's the form of a verb following "have," "has," or "had." |
1:38 | For example, I had asked, She had seen, |
1:43 | We had run. They had caught. |
1:49 | All right, your turn. |
1:52 | Write the verbs as past participles. Click pause. |
2:12 | Now, you can share your experience. |
2:18 | Next time, we will learn about Wh-questions. |
2:23 | This is American English, and thanks for watching. |
