Explanation: Use the simple present to express an action that happens regularly, a normally scheduled event, or a habit. It is the base form of the infinitive with "to" removed. For a third-person singular subject, add -s or -es to the base form of the verb in the simple present.

Use the continuous present to express an action that is going on as the sentence is being spoken. The helping verb (auxiliary) is a from of the verb "to be" in the present tense that agrees with the subject. Add -ing to the main verb.
