ABSTRACT This final project studies the problems in teaching English tenses to the 5th grade students in SDN Juworo IV Grobogan. The writer presents the teaching of present continuous tense to the 5th grade students. The writer used grammar translation method in teaching English grammar to the students. The writer explained the grammar rules, vocabulary, and translated the sentences. The writer gives two kinds of exercises to the students. The first exercise is the writer asks the students to make five sentences (positive, negative and interrogative) then translate into English. The second exercise is the writer asks the students to change the sentences into the rules of present continuous tense. In teaching tenses, the students felt difficult to understand the grammar rules and they felt difficult to answer the interrogative sentences. Adding the rules with some information and giving various examples and exercises were the solutions to those problems.
