Simple Present or Present Progressive

Hi, I've got a sentence for which I would like to know the correct form. Check it out:

We always do/ are always doing our homework as soon as we are getting home/ get home.

My belief is that: "We always do our homework as soon as we get home." is correct.

My English teacher which is a German lady beleives that: "We always do our homework as soon as we are getting home." is correct. For me that doesn't make sence.

Maybe someone can help. Thanks.

Hi Blue;

Welcome to EnglishForward (EF for short.)

I'd be blue too if I had to suffer a teacher who does not know their subject.

Why don't you ask your teacher to check out her lessons, quizzes and exercises here on EF?

Terminology.
Traditional grammar texts used the word "phrase" to mean a syntactic unit that did not contain a finite verb and subject.

Modern texts might use "reduced clause" for syntactic units that contain some form of a verb.
