The Present Pefect tense is generally the most challenging for Turkish speakers.
So here we establish a strong undertanding by understanding how to use the Present Perfect Tense by thinking about time instead of grammar rules.
Introducing tenses visually using a timeline rather than with rules allows learners to understand the function of the tense when framing a sentence.
