Perfect and Past Perfect Tense

Many of you are forgetting your basic grammar.    I am seeing many mistakes in your writing that AP5 students should not be making.   Tense mistakes are common as are errors with articles and relative clauses.

I recommend a quick review of past perfect tense including practice exercises here

I am also seeing many problems in your writing that I think are causes by excessive translation.   Unless you stop thinking in your first language (which is difficult if you always use it outside of class),  your English will not improve very much!
