What do you do every day?

Easy.

I get up, breakfast, go to work.

Not the best answer for IELTS speaking.

Let's find out how to do it better.

Hello, this is Keith from English Speaking Success and the website Keith Speaking Academy,

here to help you speak English more confidently.

In this video today, we're going to look at three things.

First, how to talk about daily routines.

Secondly, some common routines you can talk about.

And then thirdly, how to link your ideas so that you sound coherent and can speak much more fluently.

Great.

At the end, I have a bonus for you.

I have a gift, a free gift, of course.

Find out more at the end of the video.

So stick around for that.

Right now, let's jump straight in to the first part about how we talk about daily routines.

So how do we talk about daily routines?

Well, let's take an example.

To get up early, which is true, right?

I'm an early bird.

I usually get up early.

We can also say, I will.

I will get up early.

This is not the future.

This is a present habit.

I will get up at six o'clock most days, right?

We can also say, I tend to,

I tend to get up early.

I typically get up early.

Nice.

If it's more frequent, like always,

I always get up early.

We can say, I religiously get up early.

Nothing to do with religion.

It just means every single day.

Also, I invariably get up early.

Invariably means not changing, always like that, right?

So all of these are adverbs like religiously, invariably.

Great to use adverbs to give colour to your answers.

You can add even more colour with adverbial phrases.

These are adverbs with two or more words like without fail.

I get up at six o'clock without fail.

Day in, day out.

I get up at six o'clock day in, day out.

Notice if the adverbial phrase has two or more words,

it usually goes either at the beginning or at the end,

not in the middle.

Now, if a routine is less frequent,

right, just sometimes, I sometimes get up at 10 o'clock in the morning,

we can say now and again,

now and again, now and again.

Yeah, I get up at 10 o'clock now and again.

or now and then, now and then.

I get up at 10 o'clock now and then.

Probably Saturday mornings, right?

When I'm sleeping in.

Or from time to time, from time to time.

I get up at 10 o'clock from time to time.

Lovely expressions, nice and colourful.

Let's look now at some common routines we can talk about.

Okay, let's talk about some common routines.

I'm going to focus on common morning routines, right?

The first one, I sleep in.

This is when you stay in bed longer, but deliberately, right?

So taking our adverbs from before,

I typically sleep in until 11 o'clock on Saturday mornings.

What about you?

Notice this is different from to oversleep.

I oversleep is where you stay in bed longer by mistake because the alarm didn't go off.

Next, breakfast.

I have breakfast.

Be careful.

One of the most common mistakes I see students make is I have a breakfast.

No, I have breakfast.

If you're going to use an adjective like I have a big breakfast,

yes, there's an a.

I have an English breakfast.

I have a hearty breakfast, then yes.

Next, drinks.

I have a coffee.

I have a tea.

More colloquially, we would say I grab a coffee.

Grab.

To grab is to take quickly.

I grab a coffee.

I grab a tea.

I grab a piece of toast.

You can go to Starbucks and grab a coffee.

If you're doing it yourself at home,

we have this nice structure.

I get myself something.

I get myself a coffee.

I get myself some breakfast where you do it yourself.

DIY.

Do it yourself.

Next, well, you go to work.

More colloquially, I head off to work.

100

I head off to school or I head off to the gym,

101

if you're that way inclined, right, to go to.

102

If you have children, and good luck to you,

103

in the morning, you can say,

104

I sort the kids out for school,

105

or I sort out the kids for school,

106

meaning you get them ready,

107

get them dressed, make sure they've eaten,

108

make sure they've brushed their teeth,

109

etc, etc. Not easy, I know.

110

So now then, next, a very common formula,

111

if you like, for routines is I do the.

112

I do the cooking in the morning.

113

I do the cleaning.

114

I do the washing, if you're talking about clothes.

115

I do the pots in the UK,

116

we say, or I do the dishes,

117

if you're talking about cleaning the plates and the cups.

118

For sport, I do some yoga.

119

I do some Pilates.

120

I do some weightlifting, maybe.

121

And if you're, as we mentioned before,

122

you like to go to the gym,

123

I go to the gym.

124

Even more colloquial, I go down the gym.

125

Or I hit the gym.

126

Doesn't mean you hit the trainer.

127

It means you go to the gym, right?

128

I hit the gym.

129

Great.

130

All of these are some common morning routines that you can now talk about in a more natural way.

131

Let's move on.

132

Next, let's look at how to link your ideas so your speech is more coherent and you can speak more fluently, okay?

133

The good news is in spoken English,

134

the connectors we use are usually very, very simple, right?

135

We don't need to overcomplicate things when we're speaking.

136

So you can say, well,

137

I do this and then I do that.

138

After that, da-da-da-da.

139

Next, da-da-da-da.

140

And then later, da-da-da-da.

141

So these are connectors, simple in order of time, right?

142

Let me put that in context to give you a very simple example.

143

So, I get up at 7am and then I have breakfast.

144

After that, I have a shower.

145

Next, I get dressed and then later, I go to work.

146

Right?

147

Simple.

148

An important grammatical point for you here.

149

When we have two activities in order,

150

A and B, we can say,

151

after I have a shower, I get dressed.

152

We can also say, probably more common,

153

after having a shower, I get dressed.

154

So instead of saying after I plus verb,

155

we say after plus verb.

156

After having, the verb is in the gerund.

157

And this is important because in English,

158

when a verb follows a preposition,

159

it's always in the gerund.

160

After having a shower, I go to work.

161

Before going to work.

162

I have breakfast.

163

Okay, make a mental note of that.

164

Great.

165

Let's take all the ideas so far.

166

Let's take the adverbs, the adverbial phrases,

167

some common morning routines and the linking words and put it into an answer to answer the question.

168

Well, not a question, but tell me about your morning routine.

169

Okay, now and then I sleep in at the weekend,

170

but on a weekday I invariably get up early and then have a shower.

171

After that I get myself some breakfast,

172

brush my teeth and then later head off to work.

173

Typically on Tuesdays I hit the gym before going to work.

174

Nice.

175

What about you?

176

Tell me about your morning routine.

177

So next, I'd like to give you a free gift.

178

Really?

179

Really.
