Explanation:

The simple aspect includes all verbs in the simple tense (past, present, or future). It is the verb form used to express a fact. The simple aspect can be confusing because it does not make clear if the action is a completed action or a habitual action.

The perfect tense or aspect is a verb form that indicates that an action or circumstance occurred earlier than the time under consideration, often focusing attention on the resulting state rather than on the occurrence itself.

The progressive aspect (or continuing aspect as it's sometimes called) is the aspect of a verb that expresses an on-going action. Progressive aspect is the collective term for verbs (past, present, or future) in a progressive tense. (This means the perfect progressive tenses too.)
