Here is an article from the Reference section on gerunds.

Mainly, you have to remember that to form the gerund of regular verbs, drop the infinitive ending (-ar, -er, -ir) and add -ando to the stem of -ar verbs and -iendo to the stem of -er and -ir verbs.

Examples:

Estoy hablando

Estoy viviendo
