Ms. April, thanks for looking into my work. 

He teaches college courses
Tense: present
Aspect: continuous 
I guess it cannot be continuous since to fall into that category it must have a "be" verb + V -ing
Mood: Factual
3 moods are being discussed in this unit namely: indicative, imperative, and subjunctive. Thus, the mood that factual statements belong to is Indicative.

Re: Verb Tense, Aspect, Mood Discussion

by Zoha Fatima -

Sentence 1: "She wishes she could travel the world."

  • Tense: The main verb "wishes" is in the present tense.
  • Aspect: There's no specific aspect marker in this sentence, but "could travel" can be considered as a modal verb construction that expresses possibility.
  • Mood: The mood in this sentence is subjunctive. The verb "wishes" is used to express a desire or wish, which is a common usage of the subjunctive mood

Sentence: "Go to the store."

  • Tense: The main verb "Go" is in the base form, indicating the imperative mood.
  • Aspect: In the imperative mood, the focus is on issuing a command, so there's no specific aspect like continuous or perfect.
  • Mood (Imperative): The mood is imperative, as it's giving a command or instruction.

Sentence from Unit 1:

"The sun rises in the east every morning."

Tense: Present simple
Aspect: Simple
Mood: Indicative

This sentence describes a habitual action (the sun rising in the east every morning), which is why it uses the present simple tense. The aspect is simple because there are no additional aspects or complexities associated with the action. Additionally, the mood is indicative because it states a fact without any doubt or uncertainty.

Since I can't access specific course materials, I can provide a general example of identifying verb tense, aspect, and mood.


Let's take the sentence: "She will have finished her homework by the time you arrive."


- Tense: Future perfect

- Aspect: Perfect

- Mood: Indicative


This sentence indicates an action that will be completed in the future (future tense), with emphasis on the completion of the action (perfect aspect), and presents a statement of fact (indicative mood).


I hope this example helps you understand how to analyze verb tense, aspect, and mood!

Since I don't have direct access to specific units or courses, could you please provide one or two sentences from Unit 1 in the ESL001 course? Once you provide the sentences, I'll be happy to help you identify the tense, aspect, and mood of the main verbs.

Sentence: "Eric reviews his lecture notes daily."

  • Tense: Present (indicated by the verb "reviews")
  • Aspect: Simple (indicated by the lack of continuous or perfect aspect markers)
  • Mood: Indicative (factual statement)

So, the main verb "reviews" in this sentence is in the present tense, simple aspect, and indicative mood. It simply states a fact about Eric's habit of reviewing his lecture notes daily.
