Most grammar books I have talk about 2 simple tenses - present and past.
past simple or present simple are called simple because they have only one verb, a main verb egI saw the movie. She walks to work.Continuous verb tenses have a present participle that is a verb ending in -ing eg walking or listening plus a be verb or an auxiliary verb. Examplespresent continuous - I am listening to musicpast continuous - The man was walking home.present perfect continuous - We have beenlistening to music.Also the simple tenses and continuous tenses are used to express different past present or future time.

Past, present, future.
The three simple tenses of a verb are past, present, and future. The past tense refers to actions that have already happened, the present tense refers to actions that are currently happening, and the future tense refers to actions that will happen.
The two tenses that will never have auxiliary verbs are the simple present tense and the simple past tense. In these tenses, the main verb stands alone without the need for an auxiliary (helping) verb to form the sentence. For example, in the simple present tense, "I eat" and in the simple past tense, "She ran," the main verbs "eat" and "ran" do not require auxiliary verbs to convey the intended meaning.
