The English verb tenses are like a pyramid. You started at the bottom in Episodes 52 through 59, where you learned verbs like be, do, can and should. Then you climbed through the middle in Episodes 66 through 70, when you learned verbs like be, do and can to make questions and other sentence types.
You've worked hard, and now you're ready- in Episode 76, Tim talks about the most commonly used verb tense of all, looking at it from a fresh perspective.

IELTS is a very popular English exam that is used by universities, employers and even immigration authorities to judge a person's level of English. IELTS includes a speaking test with three parts; the complete speaking test lasts around fifteen minutes. In this week's episode, Tim takes the IELTS to show you what a real test sounds like and how it is structured. Returning in the role of examiner is Tim's friend and colleague from Great Britain, Christian, whom you met in Episode 53: A Spot of British English.
