Hey everybody, welcome to this A1 English listening practice video.
You can use this video to practice your listening and comprehension as I speak.
You ready?
So, today, I'm going to talk about my daily routine.
My routine is different on weekdays and weekends.
I'll tell you about my routine on weekdays.
So, I normally wake up at about 6 or 6.15 AM.
I like waking up early.
I don't like getting up late.
When I wake up, the first thing I do is read my Bible.
Then, I study languages for a little while.
Currently, I'm studying Indonesian.
I like to study in the morning because I feel motivated.
Other people prefer studying in the evening.
Do you like studying in the morning, afternoon, or evening?
So, after I study, I usually eat some fruit.
This is my first food of the day.
Then, I start my work.
I usually start working at 7.30 AM.
Most other people start at 8 AM or 9 AM.
I like starting early, though.
I'm an English teacher, and I teach many students.
I have different students every day.
Some days, I have many classes, and other days, I have fewer classes.
Most of my students are from Brazil and Russia, but I have students from many other countries, too.
Every day, I talk to people from all over the world.
This is really fun.
I love my job.
So, during my workday, I have some breaks.
Sometimes, I have a 30-minute break between classes.
During my breaks, I eat, study, and hang out with my wife.
My last class usually ends at 4.30 or 5 PM.
Many Americans get off work at 5 PM.
After I get off work, I eat dinner.
My wife cooks dinner every weekday, so we eat at home.
I'm always hungry when I finish work.
In the US, people eat dinner early, like at 6 PM.
This is very common.
In other countries, people eat dinner late, like at 9 PM.
I don't like this.
For us, dinner is the biggest meal of the day.
We eat a lot for dinner.
My wife and I eat meat, vegetables, and other food.
Some days, I exercise in the evening, too.
I don't exercise every day, only some days.
I should exercise more, though.
After I exercise and eat dinner, I eat dessert.
I normally have milk and cookies.
I love milk and cookies.
After dessert, I study my languages more.
Then, I spend time with my wife.
Lastly, I take a shower, brush my teeth, and get ready for bed.
I usually go to bed at 10 PM.
So, that's my normal routine on weekdays.
I like to have a consistent routine.
I plan my days, and I try to follow my plan.
Some people don't like planning their days.
They prefer to do different things every day.
I like doing different things, too.
But, I like having a general plan to follow.
If I don't have a general plan, I feel lost.
I like having a daily routine.
However, on the weekends, I do many different activities.
My weekends are very different from my weekdays.
But, I always wake up and go to bed at the same time every day.
That doesn't change.
I like to start and end every day at the same time.
Okay, that's all for today.
Leave a comment and tell me if you have a daily routine.
I'll see you next time.
