When will be the last day
My sentence:
-When will be the last day I will see/will be seeing/am seeing/see you? Which tense can be used and which wrong? I am not sure, because it does not sound right to have many WILLs in one single sentence, and my teacher told me this is wrong: -He would follow me wherever I would go. Because we can't have two WOULDs, do you agree? |

I disagree. You can use more than one 'will' and more than one 'would' in a sentence.
When will be the last day I'll see you? When will be the last day I'll be seeing you? When will be the last day I see you? All good. Note the contractions. When will be the last day I'm seeing you? A bit awkward, but good. Note the contraction. He would follow me wherever I would go. Perfect. And you can use contractions. He'd follow me wherever I'd go. |

Thank you~ But I know that in English, grammar might change because of negativity or interrogation. Does your answer mean the following, which is the question type, is possible?
-Would you follow me wherever I would go/went? |

Would you follow me wherever I go would be the way I would say it. However, would you follow me wherever I would go is certainly grammatically correct. The use of went, in this case is bad English.

Also possible:
Would you follow me wherever I (might/may) go? |
