# ONLINE Tenses Boot Camp – Week 1: Present Simple (6-Week Intensive for Working Professionals) ## What This Is This is a structured **6-week Tenses Boot Camp** designed for working professionals who use English at work but still feel unsure about their grammar under pressure. Each week focuses on one tense. Week 6 consolidates everything so you can actually use the tenses naturally and confidently. This is not random grammar practice. It’s systematic, practical, and built for real professional communication. *** ## The 6-Week Structure * Week 1 – Present Simple * Week 2 – Present Continuous * Week 3 – Past Simple * Week 4 – Past Continuous * Week 5 – Future (will / going to) * Week 6 – Consolidation: Using All Tenses Together By the end, you’ll understand: * what each tense is actually for * how to stop mixing them up * how to form negatives correctly * how to ask questions naturally * how to use the right tense at the right time. * * Week 1 – Present Simple Most professionals were “taught” the present simple years ago. But many still: * hesitate with third person (he works / she works) * get confused forming negatives (doesn’t / don’t) * struggle to form clean questions * mix present simple and present continuous * sound unnatural when describing their role This session fixes that properly. We will cover: * When we really use the present simple at work * Structure (affirmative / negative / questions) * Common mistakes professionals make * Live speaking practice in work contexts * Error correction and clarification Everyone will speak. Everyone will practise. You’ll also receive structured homework to reinforce the session. *** ## Who This Is For * Working professionals using English at work * People who feel their tenses aren’t “solid” * Professionals who want clarity and structure * People who were taught grammar but never fully mastered it *** ## Who This Is Not For * Students * Hobby learners * Passive listeners * People looking for casual conversation only This is a focused, professional environment. *** ## Practical Details * £10 per session * Small group (maximum 6 participants) * 1 hour (may extend to 1.5 hours if group is full and engaged) * Online via Microsoft Teams Only confirmed and paid participants will receive the Teams link. *** ## Why This Boot Camp Works Many professionals don’t lack vocabulary. They lack clarity. When tenses are unclear: * confidence drops * speech becomes hesitant * mistakes repeat * authority weakens This Boot Camp gives you a clear mental structure so your English feels controlled, not chaotic. If you’ve been using English for years but still feel unsure about your tenses, this is exactly what this course is designed to fix. Dates for the first 3 weeks: Saturday 20th March 9am Saturday 7th March 9am Saturday 14th March 9am What happens if I'm unavailable for a session? The subjects are standalone so it won't matter too much. Pay for the next session and let me know and I'll send you some catch up material. How do I pay/sign up/attend etc? I'll send you a link to pay by paypal (by email) when you've RSVP'd Once you've paid, I'll send you some preparation tasks, things to do before the class. I'll also send you the TEAMS link to enter the class Entry to the class ends 5 minutes after the Teams room opens. If you're not in the class by then, you won't be admitted. If you have any questions please send me an email speakenglishwithconfidence01@gmail.com

Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems: * Using running totals * Performing operations in intervals * Identifying data gaps and islands * Performing aggregates without losing detail Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.

This is a group for like minded people interested in understanding, leveraging, using, creating for, profiting from, trading too i suppose, NFT's.. everything around them, complexity, fear and exploits, best practices and more. **PLUS** This group will talk AI ART tools, techniques, artists, video, audio, prototypes and more in the AI assisted production space- ART specifically, but we can get into any aspect of some of the cooler things happening in AI in general.

**Google Analytics Alternatives** Is it finally time to make the switch away from Google Analytics? Two-and-a-half years ago Jason Packer asked this question at Columbus Web Analytics Wednesday. Since then: Google’s Universal Analytics has been sunset, we’ve changed our name to Columbus Data & Analytics Wednesday, and Jason has released two editions of his book “Google Analytics Alternatives”. Fresh off the release of the 2nd edition of his book, we thought it was time to re-open this conversation. While people love to complain about it, GA’s market share has remained relatively constant (at least in the United States). Why is that? You won’t find any complaints about GA4 in this talk, but rather an overview of what’s currently available in the market and how to frame your decision-making process. We’ll also be giving out some free copies of Jason’s book! So even if you’ve got a “GA4Lyfe” tattoo (no judgement), there’s free books to go with the free pizza and beer.
