My Common Miatakes
1.- My Mistake was writing "people is" and should be "people are" because " is" is for singular and "are" for plural.
ex 1.- Those rings are very expensive.
ex 2.- My classmates are very generous and polite.
2.- I have problems with the use of will-future.
We use the will-future:
Peter will be 15 next Tuesday.

The will-future is one future tense. There are other future tenses, like the going to-future, the Present Progressive, the Future Progressive/Continuous and the Simple Present.We use the will-future:
1) Future actions happen without the speaker's intention (birthday, weather, etc.)
The sun will shine tomorrow.Peter will be 15 next Tuesday.
2) Predictions, assumptions (I think, I hope, I'm sure, I'm afraid)
I think Sue will arrive in Paris at 6 pm.3) Spontaneous actions (not planned)
