I am doing something: I am in the middle of doing something. I have started doing it and I have not finished yet.

Often the action is happening at the time of speaking:

I am tired. I am going to bed now
Please don´t make so much noise. I´m working.

But the action is not necessarily happening at the time of speaking. For example:

I´m reading an interesting book at the moment. I will lend it you when I have finished it.


PRONOUN         +           VERB TO BE     +           VERB/ING

We use the present continuous when we talk about things happening in a period around now (for example, today / this week / this evening etc.)

                            You are working hard today
