All you conjugations are correct.
Past Tense is a tense which is quite regular.

It is because of personal suffixes. There are different types of personal suffixes for different tenses.

These are for past tense:
-m
-n
-
-k
-niz
-ler

These are for present continuous tense, simple present and future tenses:
-um
-sun
-
-uz
-sunuz
-lar
