Write down some simple sentences in the active voice, try to change them into the passive one and post it on the forum. I'm sure you get some responses here.

I assume you are trying to ask "How do I present a lesson on active and passive voice?"

I'm sorry to say it, but your inability to form a coherent question does not bode well for the prospect of your teaching active and passive to others.

To change active to passive, you need to know all the verb tenses of the active voice, especially the forms of be, and the past participles of all the verbs. Without this knowledge you can't even begin to do transformations to and from active and passive voice.

takes, for example, is present tense, and the corresponding tense for be is am, is, or are. The past participle of take is taken. So the passive of takes is am taken, is taken, or are taken.

Similarly, you have these active-passive pairs:

have taken > has been taken / have been taken
found > was found / were found
see > am seen / is seen / are seen
________________

In addition, you need to know all the corresponding subject and object forms of the personal pronouns. For example, if you have the object 'him' in an active sentence, you must change it to the subject form 'he' in the corresponding passive. Similarly, if you have a subject like 'we', you have to be able to change it to 'us' in the passive sentence.

Don't attempt to teach 'active' and 'passive' to students who do not already have a firm foundation in the topics I've mentioned above.
