Explicación:

-Cuando veas "at the moment" o "now" debes usar el Present Continuous ( los verbos terminan en "ing"). Esto significa que esa acción se está haciendo ahora mismo.

-Cuando veas "everyday"/ "every Monday" / "every week" o adverbios de frecuencia como "usually"/ "frequently"/ "never"/ "normally ".... debes usar el Present Simple. Esto significa que es una rutina o hábito.
