LearnEnglish Hub
In our new Learning hub, you can put your language into practice. Take part in the activities and practise your English skills by writing comments, recording yourself speaking and sharing photos with descriptions.
Think about these points when the purpose of your email is to make an arrangement.
Here are some typical questions used for making arrangements:
Use on with days: Could we meet on Monday?
Use in with months, years and other expressions: I'm going to visit my grandparents in October.
Use at with times and other expressions: Could you please call me at 3pm?
Use next to refer to future times: I hope we can meet again next week.
Use when to start a future time clause: Let's meet again when it is convenient.
To speak about a timetable, use the present simple: Next term runs from 1 September until 16 December.
To speak about a future arrangement, use the present continuous: Mr Toshiko is coming to our next meeting.
To speak about a plan, use 'be going to': Next term we are going to learn about pollution.
See the talking about the future page for more practice.
Use the present simple after when, if and next time in future time clauses:
a little bit difficult but not impossible for me.

Hi EvgeniyKulikov,
I'll try to help. When you add a new phrase to the answer boxes, make sure you click on the grey box itself. Don't click on any phrases that are already inside the box, as that will replace one instead of adding it.
Best wishes,
Jonathan
