The present progressive is used less in Spanish than in English. In Spanish, the present progressive emphasizes that an action is in progress. Ella está escuchando música ahora mismo (right now). She is still listening to music. In English, the present progressive is used with actions that occur over time or in the future. In Spanish, the simple present tense is used.
