First, let's consider the present tense of a regular "ar" verb. To determine the correct forms of a verb, we start with its infinitive form. The infinitive form of the verb meaning (to walk) in Spanish is (caminar).
Now we take off the -ar ending:
caminar - ar = camin
Now we add on one of the present tense endings: o, as, a, amos, an
camin + (ending) --> camino, caminas, camina, caminamos, caminan

corr + (ending) --> corro, corres, corre, corremos, corren
And again with an (ir) verb. The verb meaning (to write) in Spanish is (escribir).
Now we take off the -ir ending:
escribir - ir = escrib
Now we add on one of the present tense endings: o, es, e, imos, en
escrib + (ending) --> escribo, escribes, escribe, escribimos, escriben
