Thinking about it again, it �s quite often used with �keep �... �She will keep shouting out in class. � I suppose �she keeps shouting out.. � is similar in meaning, but using �will � makes it a more conscious effort on �her � part. If you said this to a parent about a student, it would imply more annoyance on your part with the student. |

Redcamarocruiser gives som excellent examples of US usage. It is definitely common, although we are as likely to use the present simple in these sentences.
