It is necessary to learn tense forms by heart. The best way is to memorize them in the following formula: Personal pronoun + tense form (I write, he writes, we write, you write, etc.) Memorizing tense forms in such constructions will also help you to memorize basic subject-verb agreement in person and number.
Необходимо выучить формы времен наизусть. Лучше всего запоминать их в следующей формуле: Личное местоимение + форма времени (I write, he writes, we write, you write и т.д.) Запоминание временных форм в таких конструкциях поможет вам также запомнить базовое согласование подлежащего и сказуемого в лице и числе.
