Present tenses (I'm doing / I do) for the future

 1. Present Continuous (I am doing) with a future meaning:

- I'm doing something (tomorrow) = I have already decided and arranged to do it.

- You can use it ti talk about what you have arranged to do, f.ex. 'Alex is getting married next month.'

- You can also use the Present Continuous Tense for an action just before you begin to do it. This happens especially with verbs of movement (go / come / leave etc.)

2. Present Simple (I do) with a future meaning:

- We use the Present Simple when we talk about timetables, programmes etc. (for public transport, cinemas etc.), f.ex. My train leaves at 11:30, so I need to be at the station by 11:15.

- You can use the Present Simple to talk about people if their plans are fixed like a timetable, f.ex. I start my new job on Monday.
