Expert writing Tips
Best practice
Always double-check the verb tense when using "have" as an auxiliary verb. Ensure the main verb is in the past participle form (e.g., provided, given, offered) or use the present continuous "are providing" to indicate an ongoing action.
Common error
Avoid mixing present perfect auxiliary verbs (have/has) with the base form or present participle (-ing form) of the main verb. Instead of writing "we have providing", use "we have provided" (past participle) or "we are providing" (present continuous).
