This document discusses future time clauses, which use words like after, as soon as, once, when, before, until, while to connect two future events. The verb following these time words should be in the simple present tense, even though both events will occur in the future. The time clause can come before or after the main clause. When placed first, it requires a comma. Present perfect can also be used to emphasize completion of the first event. When and while connect events that will happen simultaneously.
La presentación explica las dos maneras más comunes de expresar el futuro en inglés: "will" y "going to", y las diferencias de uso entre ambas estructuras.

Social media as a laboratory for genre & audienceKelly Tracy
Presented at TESOL 2019
Social media can make the nebulous concepts of genre, audience, and style more concrete and immediate for our students. In considering the genre features of posts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, students must develop audience awareness and make choices to tailor their writing style to each audience. Participants will see how students can engage more deeply with their source material by transforming academic summaries, responses, and syntheses into posts for various social media platforms. The presenter will share lesson plan ideas, sample student work, and assessment tips.
English Word Roots to Improve Your VocabularyKelly Tracy
Do you want to grow your English vocabulary in an easy, efficient way? You need to learn English word parts!
Many English words and word parts come from Greek and Latin. These word parts include prefixes, roots, and suffixes. We've already taught you the most common English prefixes and suffixes in two earlier slide decks.
Word roots, also called stems, can be at the beginning, middle, or end of words.
English Suffixes to Improve Your VocabularyKelly Tracy
Every English learner wants to improve their vocabulary. You can grow your vocabulary power quickly and efficiently by learning word parts!
English borrow many words and word parts from other languages, especially Latin and Greek. One kind of word part is suffixes. A suffix is added to the end of a word to change its meaning, and often its part of speech as well. The same suffixes are used in many words, so if you know some common ones, it will be easier to figure out the meanings of new words.
English Prefixes to Improve Your VocabularyKelly Tracy
English has many common word parts: prefixes, roots, and suffixes. If you learn some of these word parts, it will be easier for you to figure out the meanings of new words.
We can add a prefix to the beginning of a word to change its meaning.
Plagiarism: What it is & how to avoid itKelly Tracy
This slide show introduces to concept of plagiarism to international students with examples of correct and incorrect incorporation of sources into academic writing,
2. • When we talk about two events in the future,
we can use one sentence with a future time
clause.
• A future time clause may begin with after, as
soon as, once, or when.
• These time words come before the earlier
action.
3. Look at this timeline:
p a s t
1 2 f u t u r
e
X X X
4. p a s t
1 2 f u t u r
e
X X X
• After I finish my homework, I’ll go to bed.
• As soon as I finish my homework, I’ll go to bed.
• Once I finish my homework, I’ll go to bed.
• When I finish my homework, I’ll go to bed.
What do you notice about
the verbs in these sentences?
5. • After I finish my homework, I’ll go to bed.
• As soon as I finish my homework, I’ll go to bed.
• Once I finish my homework, I’ll go to bed.
• When I finish my homework, I’ll go to bed.
The verb after the time word is
simple present (even though it will
happen in the future).
6. p a s t
1 2 f u t u r
e
X X X
Before is another time word. It
comes before the later action.
Before I go to bed, I’ll finish my homework.
I’ll finish my homework before I go to bed.
7. Until is another time word. It comes before the earlier
action if that action will continue up to the second
action.
p a s t
1 2 f u t u r
e
X do my homework X
(9:00-10:59)
• Until I go to bed, I’ll do homework.
8. We can put the time clause at the beginning or end of the
sentence.
• After I finish my homework, I’ll go to bed.
• I’ll go to bed after I finish my homework.
• As soon as I finish my homework, I’ll go to bed.
• I’ll go to bed as soon as I finish my homework.
If it’s at the beginning, use a comma to make your sentence
easier to read. (If it’s at the end, you don’t need a comma.)
9. In any of these sentences, you can use present perfect
after the time word.
It emphasizes that the action will be completed.
• Once I have finished my homework, I’ll go to bed.
• I’ll go to bed when I have finished my homework.
(This is less common than simple present.)
10. Use when or while if two future events will
happen at the same time.
p a s t I do my homework f u t u r
e
X My roommate sleeps
• While my roommate sleeps, I’ll be doing my homework.
• When my roommate sleeps, I’ll be doing my homework.
11. p a s t I do my homework f u t u r
e
X My roommate sleeps
Because the two events will happen at the same time, the
order of clauses doesn’t matter.
• While my roommate sleeps, I’ll be doing my homework.
• My roommate will be sleeping while I do my homework.
Just remember: the verb after the time word should be
simple present.
12. Got it? Awesome!
• Please do exercises 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4
(pages 79-82).
• We’ll check them in class Thursday and go
over any questions you have.
Thanks!
