Francisco is teaching an English lesson (Lesson 17) where he covers the days of the week and adverbs of frequency. He explains the correct pronunciation of the days of the week, capitalizing the first letter, and using the preposition "on" before the day.
He then introduces adverbs of frequency, such as "always," "usually," "frequently," "never," "sometimes," "seldom," and "hardly ever." He uses examples to demonstrate how to use these adverbs in sentences, focusing on verb conjugation and sentence structure.
Francisco emphasizes the importance of maintaining the present simple tense when using these adverbs and notes the difference between "go" and "goes" in sentences. He encourages his students to practice using these adverbs in their own sentences and provides additional exercises at the end of the lesson.
