If I have the time, I help the weaker learners with their learning difficulties.

Question

Use
We use the second conditional to express an unreal situation and its probable result. The situation or condition is improbable , impossible, imaginary or contrary to known facts.
We wont have a holiday this year because we havent got any money.If we had any money, we wouldnt have a holiday this year.I havent got any spare time so I wont learn Russian.
If I had any spare time, I would learn Russian.We havent got a big house. We cant invite friends to stay.
If we had a big house, we could invite friends to stay.
There arent any eggs, so I wont make a cake.
If there were any eggs, I would make a cake.Im not very clever, so I wont be a doctor.
If I were very clever, I would be a doctor.
I havent got a mobile, so you cant call me.
If I had a mobile, you could call me.

If I had a car, I could take you to the airport.
I ve got a headache, Im not going swimming.
If I didnt headache, I would go swimming.
I dont know the answer, so I cant tell you.
If I knew the answer, I could tell you.
If it will rain, Ill stay at home. (will does not reply twice)Many languages use a future tense in the condition clause to referto a future, which is quite logical. However, English does not.If I see Peter, I tell him the news.
This is an example of learners resorting to a ubiquitous Present Simple / verb stem verb stem tense to refer to any time.
If it rains, Ill stay at home.

What would you do if you won a lot of money?
If he asks me, I not say anything? ( The guys may ask you in the high possibilities)If he asks me, Id not say anything? When Germany wins the World cup, Ill be very happy. ( when cannot be applied as there is no one sure who is the champion of World Cup)If Germany wins the World cup, Ill be very happy.If I lose my job, Ill (sure to take place) / If I lost my job, Id
The choice of conditionals is sometimes
Learners often have problems with conditionals because of the use of past tenses with present meaning. One way of helping them is by breaking down the meaning and then asking them questions to check they understand. (This can be done with all language, not just conditionals.)
For example, lets look at the second conditional example:
Shed enjoy teaching more if she taught adults too.
We can break down the meaning like this:
She doesn't enjoy teaching
She doesnt teach adults at the moment
She teaches children
This is unlikely to change soon
Then we can ask our learners questions like:
Does she enjoy teaching? (No)
Does she teach children or adults? (Children)
Do you think this will change soon? (probably not)
Are we talking about a situation in the past or now? (now)
Or for the third conditional: http://www.englishteachermelanie.com/grammar-the-3rd-third-conditional/ Id have eaten breakfast if I hadnt slept in this morning!
We can define this as:
I didnt eat breakfast
I slept in
I cant change this now - it happened in the past
We can ask:
Did she eat breakfast? (No)
Did she sleep in? (Yes)
Can she change this? (No)
Why? (It happened in the past)
Or you could be more challenging:
Is she hungry? (Yes)
Why? (She didn't eat breakfast)
Why not? (She slept in)
Can she change this? (No)
Why? (It happened in the past)
