Rezumat:The similarities between present perfect and past simple tense determine students to make confusion between them. If we think strictly in term of time both present perfect and past simple places the events prior to the moment of speaking on the timeline. In other words they both give a retrospective view on the events; but with the present perfect is not so much about the time.
The past simple creates a retrospective axis of orientation, the past axis, having no connection to the present; it is viewed as separated from the present. The present perfect is a subtle retrospective aspect instead; on the timeline it is placed prior to the moment of speaking (as the past simple is) but it has connections with the present; it views the action as either occurring in a time-frame leading up to the speech time (or around the moment of speaking), or implies a current relevance.
