Complete the sentence. Put the verb in the correct form (present perfect).
1. I didn't tell (not / tell ) anybody that you're coming to see us, so nobody knows.
2. I haven't told (not / tell ) anybody that you're coming to see us, so nobody knows.
Number 1 is incorrect, 2 is correct. Can anyone help me understand why 1 is incorrect?
Thanks!

With learning how to teach grammar, it's best to just take things one small step at a time. Just deal with the point you are going to teach that particular day.
The more you teach grammar, the more confident you will become.
Knowing something and teaching/explaining it prove to be very different.
My teacher training package can help you to develop your skills as a teacher.
Also there are a range of efl materials to support your courses.
I have designed them all myself drawing on 12 years of experience.
