We use the present progressive tense:

moment.

now.

 We are learning the progressive

2. When something is happening at this

moment. When the action has started but
hasn't finished.

 It is snowing at the moment.

 The economy is growing at an
exponential rate.
 The children are sleeping, so please
be quiet.

3. To talk about something that is happening around the time of speaking but not necessarily at that exact moment.

 Alfredo is studying a lot for his exam.

 I'm reading a great book. (not necessary right at this moment)

or are in general and the present progressive tense for things that may change or are temporary.
