To-infinitive

I'm happy to see you, Peter. I was hoping to talk to you yesterday.

Past simple

Were you busy in London? Tell me about it.

Later! Now we will have another drink of water before lunch.

I was working at the language school. I was giving classes to intermediate students.

They were very easy to teach. Weren't they Jeanne?

Jeanne was in the class, weren't you? She was free because she did not have any classes herself.

I was happy to teach because the students were receptive.

We did the past of "to be": "I am" is the present form and "I was" is the past.

I am, I was, you are, you were, he/she/it is, he/she/it was, we are, we were, you are, you were, they are, they were.

Was I? Were you? Was he/she/it? Were we? Were you? Were they?

No, I was not. I know how I have to learn and practise. In France I wasn't ready.

Now, I accept that English is not logical.

I did not know the importance of pronunciation.

If you pronounce well, it makes listening easier.

If listening is easier, then it is easier to memorise.

If you speak English with a French accent, it is difficult to learn English.
