Talking about the future

Use ‘will’ when you decide to do something as you are speaking.

I’ll just stop by my apartment to change clothes, and then I’ll come right over to meet you.

Use ‘will’ or ‘going to’ for factual information or predictions based on what you know.

You’ll going to be out of town, but you’ll be back Friday? My boss is going to make us work late Friday. Our project won’t be finished on time.

Use the present continuous or ‘going to’ (not ‘will’) for decisions you’ve made and fixed plans.

I’m meeting Anna after my aerobics class. We’re going to have dinner together. I’m not doing anything tonight.

Use the simple present for schedules.

I have my aerobics class tomorrow. It starts at 7:00.
