Mensagem: 

Thanks, Jazz.

I take the same approach when I teach my students the future tense. Depending on the level, I also hightlight the difference between using  "will" and "going to" for predictions (the former based on opinion and the latter, on present evidence). And they usually pick it up easily once examples are given.
