               •  We used simple past tense to describe complete action.
               •  Past continuous tense is used to describe incomplete action at a past time.
               •   Past  tense  can  also  be  used  to  make  requests,  questions  and  suggestions  more  polite  because  it  sounds  less
                direct than present tenses.
                Example:  • Could you lend me a hand?
                         • Would you be home this afternoon for lunch?
                         • I was hoping if you could teach me how to make a burger.
