Past Perfect Continuous: Como utilizar
Olá! Estou tendo dificuldade no seguinte:
Imagine que você trabalhava Como professor por 4 anos mas agora trabalha com outra coisa. Qual seria o certo?
1) I had been worked as a teacher for 4 years but now I am working as a mechanic. It's been 5 months since I started my new job.
2) I was working as a teacher for 4 years but now...(continue)...
Outro exemplo, vamos supor que voce tava pintando a casa a manha toda mas agora ja eh noite e você ta em casa.
1) I had been painting the house all the morning and that's why I am tired.
2) I was painting the house this morning and that's why I am tired.
Obrigado!

Me parece natural e simples dizer:
I worked as a teacher for 4 years but now I am working as a mechanic.
Caso você quisesse usar o 'had been..' você teria que dizer ''I had been workING as a teacher for four years...'' (Porém não me parece muito comum ouvir tal frase)
Segundo caso: Eu diria ''I painted the house this morning that's why I'm tired now.
