Mastering the Simple Future Tense
This week, we explore the simple future tense, a crucial tool for expressing actions that will take place at a later time. Understanding how to correctly use the simple future tense will help you communicate plans, intentions, and predictions with confidence.

Forms of the Future Tense: Use "will" or "shall" to indicate future actions, such as, “I will call you tomorrow.”
Using "Going to": When a plan or intention is already decided, "going to" is often used—for example, "We are going to visit Paris next summer."
