yes sure man
present p-erfect....

when an action happened in the past has some relation in the present.
rules: for singular we use has/for plural we use have.+3rd form the verb.

eg.I have finished my work.
She has gone to the market.

Past perfect.
when something happened in the past of the past
like you are talking about an action of the past and when some another action that happened before the previous past action is the past perfect

rules:had +3rd form of the verb

eg.:when I reached the station, the train had left.

here the second half of the sentence is past perfect.

PRESENT PERFECT CONTINUOUS
When someone asks .."What are you doing?"
We answer,"I'm working in HDFC,BANK.
but when someone asks ,"How long you are working here?"
Then we answer in Present perfect continuous tense
That is,I have been working here for two years.

or....."Ihave been working here since January 2005.

Rules are: for singular we use HAS
/ for plural we use HAVE+3rd form of the verb.
In this we also use SINCE and FOR

SINCE is used for exact point of time
FOR is used for duration of time.

I hope you got it.

PRESENT PERFECT---The work was started in the past n we are not bothering about its starting but the finished work can be seen presently.Ex.I have answered your question.

PAST PERFECT---When there are 2 works done in the past the older one should be treated differently with a helping verb HAD n the later work will be expressed in simple past form. Ex. I had reached there before you reached.

PRESENT PERFECT CONTINEOUS--- The main theme is that to show the time duration n the work is started in the past but still going on. Helping verb has been/ have been to be added after subject word accordingly.Ex. I have been working in the garden since morning. Main verb got "ing" form.

hope it'll help u.
have a nice day

past perfect: had + past participle
