We use tenses to describe when and how actions happen. The verb form changes for different tenses.
Present tenses

I earn $100 a day.
I’m saving money for my education.
They’re studying in a language school.
Past tense
They moved to Canada thirty years ago.
I had a bad accident last month.
Future forms
I’m going to study for a master's degree.
I’m going back to Toronto next September.
What are you doing tonight?
-----------------------------------------------
The Present Continuous uses the auxiliary verb to be in all forms
Positive
I am living in New York.
She is reading.
They are watching a film.
Negative
I'm not sleeping.
He isn't learning French.
They aren't working at the moment.
Question
Is she reading?
What are they watching?
Why are you learning English?
-------------------------------------------------
In the Present Simple and the Past Simple, there is no auxiliary verb in the positive.
Positive
They live in Australia.
He arrived yesterday.
We use the correct form of the auxiliary verb do in negatives and questions.
Negative
I don't work in New York.
He doesn't have any children.
We didn't watch TV.
Question
What does she do?
Do they live in London?
Where did Bill go?
--------------------------------------------------
Yes / No questions have no question word.
Are you hot? Yes, I am. / No, I'm not.
Does he speak English? Yes, he does. / No, he doesn't.
Questions can also begin with a question word.
what where which how who when why whose
What is she doing at the moment?
Where's the station?
Which is your car?
How does she go to work?

---------------------------------------------
We can use a noun after what, which, and whose.
What size do you take?
Which coat is yours?
Whose book is this?
We generally use which when there is a limited choice, but this rule is not always true.
Which is your pen? (a limited choice)
What/ Which newspaper do you read? (not a limited choice)
We can use an adjective or an adverb after how.
How big is his new car?
How old are you?
How fast does it go?
How often do you have English classes?
We can also use much or many after how.
How much is this sandwich?
How much money did they borrow from the bank?
How many brothers and sisters have you got?
