EXERCISES TO "FIND THE MISTAKE"

Hi, gang!!

A little help, please. I have an adult learner, late 20s. First language is Portuguese, learning English for immigration purposes. Lately we �ve been working on helping him improve by forcing his mind to think about his own mistakes.

I �m looking for exercises that do this. For example: I �ve been giving him sentences with various verb tenses done horribly wrong, and asking him to fix them. Or to properly construct them.

Such as: 8:00 Started studying 8:30 Time now

1) I "have been studying" for 30 minutes.

2) I "started" studying 30 minutes "ago" (he needs help with prepositions of time as well)

8:00 time now

9:00 eat dinner

I "haven �t eaten" dinner "yet"

You get the idea.

I �ve been searching our lovely site here for similar exercises, but I �m coming up empty. Have any of you created such exercises? If so, I �d be tickled if you �d share the link.

Please and thank you :-)
