Ways to use Gerund

When a verb ends in -ing, it may be a present participle or it may be a gerund. It is important to understand that they are not the same.
When we use a verb in -ing form more like a verb or an adjective, it is usually a present participle:
  • Anthony is fishing.
  • I have a boring teacher.
When we use a verb in -ing form more like a noun, it is usually a gerund:
  • Fishing is fun.
