Sequence of tenses if the verb in the main sentence is in the past tense the other verbs are usually in one of the past tense too. Present Simple Past Simple I'm a teacher.

Reported Speech (in other words Indirect Speech) If we report what another person has said, we usually do not use the speaker's exact words (direct speech), but reported (indirect) speech. Therefore, you need to learn how to transform direct speech into reported speech. We use reported speech when we are saying what other people say, think or believe. - Example: If this verb is in the present tense (says), it's easy. We just put 'she says' and then the sentence. When we are reporting things in the present, future or present perfect we don't change the tense. : direct speech: "I like ice cream" reported speech: She says she likes ice cream - But, if the reporting verb is in the past tense (said), then usually we change the tenses in the reported speech:
want/like/know/go etc have/has had wanted/liked/knew/went etc will would can could wanted/liked had wanted/had liked Direct speech Reported speech Jo says: Jo said: ,,I like tennis." (that) she liked tennis. ,,John is going to learn it too." (that) John was going to learn it too. ,,Mary has given up her hobby too." (that) Mary had given up her hobby too. ,,I can´t play tennis on Monday" (that) she couldn´t play tennis on Monday.
Reported speech is often also called indirect speech. When we use reported speech, we are usually talking about the past (because obviously the person who spoke originally spoke in the past). The verbs therefore usually have to be in the past too. For example: "I'm going to the cinema". He said he was going to the cinema.
