This podcast is created through a human-led editorial process. Every episode concept, educational strategy, narrative direction and final editorial decision is developed and reviewed by people committed to making English learning meaningful. Artificial intelligence supports script development and editing, while ElevenLabs provides the synthetic voices of our hosts. Human judgement leads the process; technology supports its production.
The sentence in the title is the mistake we correct. Practise I've lived here since a starting point, I've lived here for a duration, and How long have you lived here? Our example runs from October 2023 to October 2026 and assumes Martin still lives there. A focused, friendly lesson, not a complete guide to every present perfect use.
Your language toolbox:
- I've … since [starting point]
