Take a look at the following examples to understand in what context you should use the future progressive:
  • "Would you like to come to my birthday party next month?" – "I can't, I will be living in England at that time for a couple of months."
  • "What are you going to do tomorrow at 10 o'clock?" – "I will be working."
  • "What do your parents think of your moving into your own apartment?" – "I think they will be missing me very much."
Now practise your knowledge in the exercise below! Read through the sentences and decide whether it is correct to use the future progressive in these cases!
