If you check a grammar, you may get more complicated
explanations. This is my simple explanation.
IDIOM We’ll see. - I
don’t know. I haven’t made a decision.
Teach next week – Modals/modal auxiliaries
Let’s take out some paper and try some sentences with simple
future.
‘will’ ‘am going to’
IDIOM I’ll get around to it soon.
