How to choose between passé composé and imparfait? (perfect vs imperfect)

The problem:

You’ve learnt how to conjugate verbs in the passé composé and in the imparfait tenses but you’re still confused about when to use them correctly.

This lesson contains:

• An overview of the typical misconceptions I hear about the difference between the two tenses
  
• A table describing how to use the passé composé and the imparfait
  
• Examples to illustrate the different uses
  
• A practice worksheet
  
• An audio version of the lesson (with the translation of the examples)
  
• An extra audio file with the detailed explanations for the answers to exercise 1 of the worksheet.
  

Note: This is NOT a lesson to learn how to conjugate the verbs. This lesson is only to help you choose between the passé composé and imparfait tenses.
