We use the simple present tense for:
events that take place regularly or habitually with signal words such as: always,
never, rarely, often
Example: He plays football every Tuesday.
events that take place one after the other
Example: After school Colin goes home, packs his bag, puts on his football shirt and then he goes
to football training.
facts, or things that are generally valid
Example: A forward tries to score goals for his team.
future actions that are planned and predetermined (e.g. by a timetable or
programme)
Example: The bus leaves at half past four. His training starts at five o’clock.
stative verbs and verbs of thought/memory
Example: Colin likes football. He is a forward.

When the verb ends with an -o, -ch, -sh, we add -es.
Example: do – he does wash – she washes
When the verb ends with a consonant + y, we change the y to ie before adding
the -s. However, verbs that end in vowel + y simply take -s.
Example: worry – he worries (but: play – he plays)
Modal verbs such as can, may, might, and must never take an -s. They remain
the same in all forms.
Example: he can swim she must go

Tom is a regular guy who lives in a small town. He has a simple life and follows a
routine every day.
In the morning, Tom wakes up early to the sound of his alarm clock. He stretches,
yawns, and gets out of bed. Then, he brushes his teeth, takes a shower, and gets
dressed for the day.
After getting ready, Tom goes downstairs to the kitchen. He makes himself a cup
of coffee and eats breakfast while reading the newspaper. Then, he grabs his bag
and leaves for work.
At work, Tom sits at his desk and checks his emails. He spends most of the day
typing on his computer and attending meetings. Sometimes, he takes a break to
chat with his coworkers or have lunch in the cafeteria.
When the workday is over, Tom heads back home. He stops by the grocery store
to pick up some groceries for dinner. Then, he walks home and prepares a simple
meal.
In the evening, Tom relaxes on the couch and watches TV. He enjoys watching his
favorite shows before going to bed. Before turning in for the night, he brushes his
teeth again and reads a few pages of a book.
Finally, Tom turns off the lights and goes to sleep, ready to start another day
tomorrow.
