Today's topic is something everyone does every single day.
9
That's right, we're talking about daily routines.
10
How to describe your day from morning to night in simple English.
11
So, Lilly, how are you feeling today?
12
I'm great, thanks.
13
Actually, I'm feeling really energetic today.
14
Oh yeah, that's good.
15
I'm a bit tired, to be honest.
16
Tired?
17
Why?
18
Did something happen?
19
Well, I stayed up a little late last night.
20
I was reading a book and I couldn't stop.
21
Oh no!
22
What book was it?
23
A mystery novel.
24
It was so interesting.
25
But then this morning my alarm went off and I thought, Oh no, why did I stay up so late?
26
I know exactly what you mean.
27
So, what time did you wake up today?
28
I woke up at 6 :45.
29
I usually wake up at 6 :30, so not too bad.
30
6 :30?
31
That's pretty early.
32
I usually wake up at 7 :00.
33
Yeah, I like to start early.
34
It gives me more time in the morning.
35
What about you?
36
Do you like mornings?
37
"Hmm, not really." I'm not a morning person.
38
But I'm trying to be.
39
Okay, so let's talk about our morning routines.
40
Let's start from the very beginning, when we wake up.
41
Good idea.
42
So my alarm rings at seven o 'clock.
43
And I always, always hit the snooze button.
44
Always.
45
Always.
46
I need those extra 10 minutes.
47
It's like a small gift to myself.
48
Do you hit snooze?
49
Never.
50
I'm terrible at that.
51
If I hit snooze, I will fall asleep again and wake up one hour later.
52
Really?
53
You have no self -control?
54
Not in the morning.
55
So, when my alarm rings, I sit up immediately.
56
I open my eyes, I stretch my arms like this, and then I get out of bed.
57
Wow, that's impressive.
58
After my snooze, I finally opened my eyes.
59
Then I just lie there for one more minute.
60
I think about my day.
61
What do I have to do today?
62
Do I have any meetings?
63
Oh, interesting.
64
I don't think in bed.
65
My brain doesn't work yet.
66
Then what's the first thing you do when you get out of bed?
67
The very first thing, I open my curtains.
68
I need to see sunlight.
69
It helps me wake up.
70
What about you?
71
The first thing I do is check my phone.
72
I know, I know.
73
It's not a good habit.
74
Everyone does that.
75
What do you check?
76
Messages from friends, the time, the weather forecast, I want to know, is it cold today?
77
Is it raining?
78
Should I wear a jacket?
79
That's smart.
80
I check my phone too but after I open the curtains.
81
I look at my calendar.
82
I check if I have any important meetings today. And then?
83
Then I make my bed.
84
every single day.
85
Every day, even on Sundays?
86
Every day.
87
It makes me feel organized.
88
It's like my room says, Good morning, Tom.
89
Today is a new day.
90
That's so disciplined.
91
I make my bed too, but only on weekdays.
92
On the weekend, I'm lazy.
93
The bed stays messy.
94
After making the bed, I go straight to the bathroom.
95
That's my second stop of the day.
96
Me too.
97
The bathroom is so important.
98
My whole morning routine happens there.
99
Okay, so what do you do first in the bathroom?
100
First, I brush my teeth.
101
I brush for two minutes, nice and slow.
102
Then I washed my face with warm water and some face wash.
103
Warm water, not cold?
104
warm Cold water in the morning?
105
No thank you.
106
I want to feel comfortable, not shocked.
107
See, I'm the opposite.
108
I wash my face with very cold water.
109
It wakes me up.
110
Splash, splash, splash, and then suddenly, I'm awake.
111
You're brave.
112
After I wash my face, I brush my hair.
113
I have long hair, so it takes a few minutes.
114
I have short hair, so one minute.
115
Very easy.
116
Then I brush my teeth.
117
I use an electric toothbrush.
118
Oh, fancy!
119
Does it work better?
120
I think so.
121
It has a timer.
122
It tells me when two minutes are finished.
123
That's helpful.
124
Do you take a shower in the morning or at night?
125
Definitely in the morning.
126
A hot shower is the best way to start my day.
127
I take a 10 -minute shower.
128
I wash my hair, wash my body, and I just stand under the water and think.
129
I'm the same.
130
Morning showers are the best.
131
But I take a quick shower, only five or six minutes.
132
I try to save water.
133
That's good.
134
My girlfriend always tells me, "Tom, your showers are too long." She's right.
135
After my shower, I dry off and get dressed.
136
But I have a small problem every morning.
137
What problem?
138
I stand in front of my closet and think, What should I wear today?
139
It takes me so long to decide.
140
Oh, I used to have that problem, too.
141
But now I have a solution.
142
I choose my clothes the night before.
143
I put them on a chair in my bedroom.
144
So in the morning, I just put them on.
145
No thinking.
146
That's genius!
147
I should do that!
148
So you never think about clothes in the morning?
149
Never.
150
It makes my morning so easy and fast.
151
Okay, after getting dressed, I go to the kitchen.
152
And I'm always very hungry.
153
Me too.
154
Breakfast is so important for me.
155
I always eat breakfast.
156
Always.
157
What do you usually eat?
158
I usually eat toast with butter and jam.
159
Sometimes I have yogurt with fruit.
160
And I always drink orange juice.
161
What about you?
162
I'm a serial person.
163
I eat cereal with milk almost every day.
164
and I drink coffee.
165
lots of coffee.
166
How many cups?
167
Two cups in the morning.
168
I can't function without coffee.
169
My brain needs it.
170
Two cups?
171
Wow.
172
I don't drink coffee.
173
I prefer tea.
174
green tea or English breakfast tea.
175
T is nice, but not strong enough for me.
176
While I drink my coffee, I usually read the news on my phone or watch a short video.
177
I do the same.
178
I watch videos while I eat.
179
It makes breakfast more interesting.
180
After breakfast, I need to get ready to leave.
181
I have to go to the office.
182
- Yeah.
183
Right!
184
And I work from home, so my morning is a little different.
185
Lucky you!
186
No commute!
187
So, what time do you leave your house?
188
I don't leave.
189
I just walk from my kitchen to my desk in my bedroom.
190
My commute is about 10 seconds.
191
That must be so nice!
192
My commute is 40 minutes.
193
40 minutes?
194
How do you get to work?
195
I take the subway.
196
I leave my house at 8 :15 every morning.
197
I walked to the subway station.
198
It takes about 7 minutes.
199
Then, I take the subway for 25 minutes.
200
Then I walk from the station to my office, Another 8 minutes.
201
That's a long journey.
202
What do you do on the subway?
203
Usually, I listen to podcasts.
204
English learning podcasts, actually.
205
Sometimes I listen to music.
206
Or I just look at people and think: That sounds peaceful.
207
Do you ever read?
208
I try to read.
209
But the subway is too crowded.
210
There's no space.
211
Everyone is standing very close together.
212
Oh, that sounds uncomfortable.
213
It is, but I'm used to it now.
214
What about you?
215
What time do you start work?
216
I start at 9 o 'clock.
217
But before I start, I have my own little routine.
218
I make a cup of tea, I sit at my desk.
219
and I write my to -do list for the day.
220
A to -do list, that's organized!
221
I should do that.
222
So you arrive at your office at what time?
223
I usually arrive at 8 :55.
224
Just in time.
225
Then, I go to my desk, I turn on my computer, and I check my emails.
226
right away.
227
Emails first.
228
Always emails first.
229
I want to see if anything urgent happened.
230
Then I check my calendar.
231
What meetings do I have today?
232
I do the same thing.
233
emails and calendar.
234
It helps me prepare mentally for the day.
235
Exactly.
236
Then at 9 :30, I have a coffee break with my colleagues.
237
We go to the coffee machine together and chat for 10 minutes.
238
That sounds nice.
239
Social time.
240
I work alone at home, so I don't have that.
241
I just drink my tea at my desk.
242
Do you miss having colleagues around?
243
Sometimes, yes.
244
But I like the quiet.
245
I can focus better.
246
What do you do after your coffee break?
247
Then the real work starts.
248
I work on my projects.
249
I'm a graphic designer, so I spend a lot of time on my computer, I design logos, posters, social media posts.
250
That sounds creative.
251
Do you take breaks during the morning?
252
I try to take a break every hour.
253
I stand up I walk around the office, I look out the window.
254
It helps my eyes and my back.
255
That's a good habit.
256
I forget to take breaks sometimes.
257
I work for two hours straight and then I realize, oh, I didn't move at all.
258
You should set a timer.
259
What kind of work do you do?

I write articles for websites.
262
So I spend all day typing on my keyboard.
263

That's the difficult part.
267
Okay, so now we're at lunchtime.
268
What time do you usually eat lunch?
269

We sit together and talk about work or sports or movies.
295
It's a nice break from work.
296
That sounds fun.
297
I eat alone most days.
298
Sometimes I call my mom on the phone while I eat.
299
That's sweet!
300
After lunch, what do you do?
301
I always take a 15 -minute break.
302
I don't work immediately after eating.
303
I sit on my sofa, I close my eyes, and I relax.
304
Sometimes I almost fall asleep.
305
A power nap.
306
I wish I could do that.
307
After lunch, I go back to my desk and I always feel a little sleepy.
308
So I make another coffee.

Coffee again?

That's your third cup.
311
I know, I know.
312
I drink too much coffee.
313
So what does your afternoon look like?

Zoom calls, phone calls, in -person meetings, How many meetings do you have per day?
317
usually two or three.
318
Each meeting is about 30 minutes or one hour.
319
That's a lot.
320
I don't have many meetings, maybe one per week.
321
I like working independently.
322
I understand that.
323
Meetings can be tiring, But sometimes they're necessary.
324
After my meetings, I finish my design projects.
325
I send files to clients.
326
I answer more emails.
327
And what time do you finish work?
328
Officially, I finish at 5 :30.
329
But sometimes, if I have a lot of work, I stay until 6 or even 6 :30.
330
Do you get paid extra for that?
331
No, that's just part of the job.
332
What about you?
333
I also finish at 5 :30, but I'm more strict about it.
334
At 5 :30 I close my laptop.
335
I stop working.
336
I don't check emails after that.
337
That's a good boundary.
338
I should do that too.
339
Okay everyone, let's stop here for a moment.
340
We've been talking a lot about our daily routines.
341
And we've used some really useful vocabulary words Let's explain a few of them now.
342
These are important words that you can use when you talk about your own daily routine in English.
343
Let's look at four keywords: Ready?
344
Ready.
345
Mm -mm.
346
The first word is routine.
347
R -O -U -T -I -N -E.
348
Routine.
349
A routine is a sequence of actions that you do regularly in the same order, It's your pattern for the day.
350
For example, my morning routine is...
351
Wake up!
352
Hits News.
353
Check my phone.
354
Take a shower.
355
Get dressed.
356
Eat breakfast and start work.
357
Good example!
358
You can have a morning routine, an evening routine, a bedtime routine, A Workout Routine Can you give us an example, Tom?
359
Sure.
360
My evening routine is: Leave work, Take the subway home, Change my clothes, Cook dinner.
361
Watch TV, brush my teeth, and go to bed.
362
Perfect!
363
So remember, a routine is a regular pattern of activities.
364
The next word is habit.
365
H -A -B -I -T Habit A habit is one single action that you do regularly, often without thinking about it.
366
It's something you do automatically.
367
For example, I have a habit of drinking coffee every morning.
368
It's automatic.
369
I don't think about it.
370
I just do it.
371
Right!
372
I have a habit of checking my phone first thing in the morning.
373
It's a habit.
374
Some habits are good and some habits are bad.
375
Can you give us a good habit and a bad habit?
376
Sure.
377
A good habit is exercising every day.
378
A bad habit is eating too much candy.
379
Great examples!
380
Our third word is schedule.
381
S -C -H -E -D -U -L -E.
382
Schedule Your schedule is your plan for the day.
383
It's the specific times when you do different activities.
384
For example, My work schedule is: I start at 9 o 'clock, I have lunch at 12 :30.
385
and I finish at 5 :30.
386
That's my schedule.
387
You can also say, What's your schedule today?
388
or, My schedule is very busy this week.
389
And our last word for today is commute.
390
C -O -M -M -U -T -E Commute.
391
A commute is your regular journey from home to work or school and back again.
392
My commute is 40 minutes by subway.
393
Lily doesn't have a commute because she works from home.
394
Lucky me!
395
You can say, I have a long commute. Or...
396
I have a short commute.
397
You can also use it as a verb.
398
I commute to work by bus.
399
So let's review!
400
Routine, Habit schedule, and commute.
401
Four very useful words for talking about your day.
402
Try to use these words this week when you talk about your daily routine.
403
It's great practice.
404
Alright, let's continue with our day.
405
We've finished work, now it's evening time.
406
Evening is my favorite part of the day.
407
It's time to relax.
408
Me too.
409
So, Lily, when you finish work at 5 :30, what's the first thing you do?
410
The very first thing I do is change my clothes.
411
I take off my work clothes and I put on something comfortable.
412
sweatpants and a t -shirt or a cozy sweater.
413
I do the same.
414
As soon as I get home, I change into comfortable clothes.
415
Work clothes off, home clothes on.
416
It's like a signal to your brain.
417
Work time is over.
418
Relax time is starting.
419
Exactly.
420
After I change, I usually sit on my sofa for 10 minutes.
421
I just breathe and relax.
422
Sometimes I close my eyes.
423
That's nice.
424
After I change, I decide what to do for dinner.
425
Do I want to cook or am I too tired?
426
And when you're too tired?
427
When I'm too tired, I order food online.
428
Pizza, Thai food, sushi.
429
It's so easy.
430
I love ordering food too, but I try to cook at home most days.
431
It's healthier and cheaper.
432
What do you usually cook?
433
Simple things: Pasta with vegetables?
434
Chicken with rice.
435
Stir Fry Nothing fancy, but it's good.
436
How long does it take you to cook?
437
About 30 minutes.
438
While I cook, I listen to music or a podcast.
439
It makes cooking more fun.
440
That's a good idea.
441
What time do you eat dinner?
442
I eat around 7 or 7 :30.
443
What about you?
444
usually 7 o 'clock.
445
I don't like eating late.
446
It's not good for my stomach.
447
After dinner, what do you do with your evening?
448
After dinner, I clean the dishes.
449
I hate leaving dirty dishes in the sink.
450
So I washed them right away.
451
Same here clean kitchen, happy mind.
452
Exactly.
453
Then I have my free time.
454
This is my relaxation time.
455
Sometimes I watch a TV show.
456
Sometimes I read a book.
457
Sometimes I call my friends or family.
458
What kind of shows do you like?
459
I like comedy shows and dramas.
460
Nothing too stressful.
461
I want to laugh and relax, not think too much.
462
What about you?
463
What do you do in the evening?
464
I usually watch one or two episodes of a series.
465
Right now, I'm watching a detective series, It's so interesting.
466
Is that the book you were reading?
467
The mystery novel?
468
No, no. Different story.
469
But I love mysteries.
470
After I watch TV, I sometimes play video games for 30 minutes.
471
Oh, what games?
472
Puzzle games mostly.
473
Games that make me think but also relax me.
474
That sounds fun!
475
I don't play video games.
476
Instead, I sometimes do yoga or stretching before bed.
477
It helps me sleep better.
478
That's healthy.
479
I should try that.
480
How long do you do yoga?
481
Just 15 or 20 minutes.
482
Nothing intense.
483
Just gentle stretching.
484
I might try that.
485
I think it would help with my back pain from sitting all day.
486
Okay, now we're at the end of the day.
487
Bedtime.
488
What time do you usually go to bed, Tom?
489
I try to go to bed at 11 o 'clock, but sometimes it's 11 :30 or midnight.
490
I'm terrible at going to bed on time.
491
Me too.
492
I always say, "Okay, I'll go to bed at 10 :30 tonight." But then it's suddenly 11 :30 and I'm still awake.
493
What do you do before bed?
494
My bedtime routine is pretty simple.
495
First, I brush my teeth.
496
Then I wash my face and put on some lotion.
497
Then I put on my pajamas.
498
Do you take a shower at night?
499
No, I take my shower in the morning, remember?
500
But some people prefer nighttime showers.
501
Right.
502
I take a quick shower at night.
503
Just 5 minutes.
504
It helps me feel clean and fresh before bed.
505
After I'm in my pajamas, I get into bed and I read.
506
I read for at least 20 minutes before I turn off the light.
507
What are you reading now?
508
A self -help book about productivity.
509
It's quite interesting.
510
What about you?
511
Do you read before bed?
512
Not usually.
513
I scroll on my phone for a few minutes.
514
I check social media.
515
I look at some memes, and then I put my phone on my nightstand, Do you set an alarm for the next morning?
516
Yes, always.
517
I set my alarm for 6 :30. And you?
518
I set mine for seven o 'clock.
519
And then I close my eyes and try to fall asleep.
520
How long does it take you to fall asleep?
521
usually about 10 or 15 minutes.
522
I'm a pretty fast sleeper.
523
What about you?
524
Me too.
525
I'm asleep in about 10 minutes.
526
My head hits the pillow and boom, I'm gone.
527
Wow, Tom.
528
We just talk through an entire day.
529
From waking up to falling asleep.
530
We really did!
531
I hope everyone learns some new phrases and feels more confident talking about their own daily routines.
532
Let's do a quick summary.
533
Today we talked about how to describe your daily routine in English.
534
We covered morning routines, work time, evening activities, and bedtime habits.
535
and we learned four important vocabulary words: routine, Habit schedule, and commute.
536
Now it's your turn to practice.
537
We have a question for you today.
538
Today's question is: What time do you usually wake up, and what's the first thing you do in the morning?
539
Please write your answer in the comments below.
540
We read every single comment and we love hearing from you.
541
Don't worry if you make mistakes, just try your best.
542
For example, you can write: I usually wake up at 7 :00.
543
The first thing I do is drink water.
544
Perfect.
545
That's great practice.
546
And if you want, you can tell us about your whole morning routine.

Guida Passo-Passo per il Shadowing
Per affrontare le difficoltà di questo video e migliorare le tue abilità linguistiche, ti consigliamo di seguire questi passaggi utilizzando la tecnica del shadowing in inglese:
- Ascolta attentamente: Prima di provare a parlare, ascolta il video un paio di volte. Fai attenzione alle intonazioni e alle espressioni degli speaker.
- Ripeti dopo di loro: Inizia a ripetere frase per frase. Non preoccuparti di essere perfetto; l'obiettivo è abituarti ai suoni e ai ritmi dell'inglese.
- Pratica la tua pronuncia: Concentrati sulla pronuncia delle parole, cercando di emulare il modo in cui Lily e Tom parlano. Usa tecniche di shadowspeak per sentirti più naturale.
- Interagisci con il contenuto: Dopo aver praticato, prova a scrivere un breve paragrafo sulla tua routine quotidiana utilizzando le frasi che hai appreso.
- Rivedi e ripeti: Infine, rivedi i tuoi appunti e ripeti il processo. La ripetizione è fondamentale per migliorare le tue abilità linguistiche.
Utilizzando questi passaggi, non solo migliorerai la tua capacità di parlare in inglese, ma potrai anche godere della pratica immersiva che offre il shadow speech. Non dimenticare di utilizzare risorse come il video su YouTube per ampliare la tua pratica e cimentarti nella conversazione in inglese!

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
