  • It should be the present continuous tense instead of the simple present.

  • We use the simple present to show habitual actions or regular activities. 

  • We use present continuous tense to show an action that is happening in the present as we speak.

  • We also use the present continuous tense for something happening again and again.

  • The rule for the present continuous tense is - Sub + Be verb (Is/Am/Are) + V1 + ing + object.
