El imperfecto progressivo
Remember the present progressive that we use for when an
action is in progress? It uses 2 words – a form of estar and an
–ing verb form:
Yo estoy hablando con Uds. - I am talking with you.
Ustedes están escuchándome. – You are listening to me.

The imperfect progressive is when an action was in progress and
uses the imperfect of estar and the –ing verb form
Yo estaba trabajando para él los martes. (I was working for him on Tuesdays.)
Los niños estaban llorando porque su madre salió. (The children were crying
because their mom left.
The imperfect forms of estar are:
Estaba
Estábamos
Estabas
Estabais
Estaba
Estaban
Remember to form the –ing form of a verb you do these steps:
Drop the ‘ar’ off and add –ando (nadando, estudiando, etc.)
Drop the ‘er’ or ‘ir’ off and add –iendo (comiendo, viviendo)
If the infinitive ends in “-aer”, “-eer”, “-uir” you need a ‘y’ in
instead of the ‘I’.
