Expert writing Tips
Best practice
Always use "it has been" instead of "it has being" to ensure grammatical correctness. "Been" is the past participle of "be" and is required for the present perfect tense.
Common error
Avoid using "being" after "has" or "have". "Being" is a present participle, typically used with forms of "be" (is, are, was, were) to form continuous tenses, not with "has" or "have" which require a past participle like "been".
