Simple Past Tense Form Timeline The best way to teach verb tense to ESL students is through the use of timelines. Timelines can help learners better understand the sequence of events while they are learning English vocabulary and improving their oral and written skills. Simple past tense adalah suatu bentuk kata kerja sederhana untuk menunjukkan bahwa suatu kejadian terjadi di masa lampau. Pada bentuk kata kerja ini, waktu kejadian (yesterday, last two days, last year) atau periode waktunya (for two months, for a day, for an hour) dapat disebutkan secara spesifik. pcPj3xw.
