🔥 5 Ways to Use The Future Continuous Tense in English

A lot of students have commented requesting a lesson about the future continuous tense... So here it is! 😀

You probably know that the present continuous tense looks like this:
I AM working
I AM leaving

To form the future continuous, we simply change I AM → I WILL BE, so it looks like this:
I WILL BE working
I WILL BE leaving

It couldn't be simpler!

The tricky part, as always, is knowing when to use this tense, so in today's lesson I'm going to teach you the 5 different ways we use the future continuous.

As always, leave me a comment on the video to tell me one sentence using this tense. It's always a good idea to practice what you learn as soon as you've watched the lesson! 👍

► LESSON NOTES: WHEN TO USE THE FUTURE CONTINUOUS:
1. When we’re describing a situation when a specific moment the future:
- I’ll be watching the game at 9pm
- This time next week I will be travelling to Mexico

2. Predicting or guessing about future events.
- You’ll be feeling tired after that holiday.
- I will be sleeping when you arrive.

3. In the interrogative form, the future continuous can be used to ask politely for information about the future:
- How many nights will you be staying?
- Will your boyfriend be coming to the wedding?

4. To talk about continuous events that we expect to happen in the future:
- I’ll be seeing Pete tomorrow so I’ll ask him then.
- Next year I’ll be working for a different company

5. When used with "still", to talk about events that are already happening now and that we expect to continue for a long time into the future:
- He’ll still be living with his parents when he’s 50
- You’ll still be eating that bowl of spaghetti at bedtime

Thank you, Greg! Your explanation of Grammar is possibly the best I've ever heard.

If I were you I would explain the differences when the simple future tense is used. For example How long will you stay ? vs how long will you be staying? I found that is one of the weaknesses that most of the teachers are having in teaching grammar.
