[ien] sounds like 'bien'
The simple present tense singular endings are -e with 'je, -es with 'tu' and -e' with il/elle
Use à after to penser to say 'think about' something/someone.
Use 'penser que' (think that) to give opinions in French. 'Que' always follows even if we would miss it out in English.

It is possible to leave 'que' out in French like it is in English.

Even if we would not translate 'que' (that) in English, in French we always need to put it when we mean 'think that'.

Ien - pronounced as in 'bien'
