1
What to do in your free time is a simple and very familiar topic.
2
However, in this video we will learn a few other aspects about the topic of free time
3
and how to express it in English.
4
What do you do in your free time?
5
Laura over here hi Bella how are you never better
6
and you I'm good have you been waiting for me for
7
long no I just came did you come here straight from work yes a long day you know you look so tired.
8
Well, of course.
9
Who is not tired of after 9 to 5?
10
True, but I haven't worked 9 to 5 for so long.
11
I forgot that feeling.
12
You won't want to get back?
13
Yep, but how does your day go?
14
Well, I start a normal morning by working up at 7 a.m., washing my face, brushing my teeth,
15
having breakfast at home and going to work at 8 a.m.
16
Yeah, a typical morning, right?
17
Yes, simple one.
18
You prefer to have breakfast at home, don't you?
19
Yes, but sometimes when I'm in a hurry, I will buy breakfast on the way to work.
20
Yeah, and then?
21
Work finishes at 5 p.m.
22
I leave work and go to the supermarket to buy food for dinner.
23
Wow, then cook, wash dishes, have a shower.
24
Does it eat up all your free time in the evening?
25
No, actually my free time is from 8 to 10.30pm.
26
What do you do during those two hours and a half?
27
It depends on my mood, but normally I watch movies and listen to music. And not normal?
28
I learned something new.
29
Wow, you deserve respect.
30
Why not?
31
For example, learn how to sing, draw, lots of different interesting things to learn.
32
You're right, but to be honest, whenever someone mentions learning or studying, I feel tired.
33
Yeah, I can imagine.
34
Do you go to sleep at 10 30 pm?
35
Yes, but like 15 minutes before sleep time, I usually read a book.
36
How do you feel about that life routine?
37
Sometimes I feel a bit boring, but I'm also feeling thankful because I still have time for myself.
38
You're right.
39
Enjoy this precious time.
40
You may not have much free time when you get married and have kids.
41
Aw, man.
42
That future is still too far for me.
43
I know.
44
I just mean enjoy the moment.
45
Thanks.
46
What do you do when you have too much free time?
47
Hi, I'm Hannah.
48
Thank you for coming to our podcast today.
49
Hi, Hannah.
50
It's so nice to be here today.
51
Before we start our podcast, I want to introduce our guest today, Skylar Howell.
52
Skylar, can you introduce a bit about yourself?
53
Hi, I'm Skylar.
54
I'm working as a freelancer and have achieved some great success with my work, making nearly $400,000 last year.
55
That's very impressive, though.
56
However, today we won't go deep about your success story, but we want to talk about your time management.
57
Okay, interesting.
58
I've heard many successful freelancers say that they have the same problem, which is that they overwork and mess up their timetable and health.
59
Oh yeah, I guess as a freelance, sooner or later, you will have to face that issue.
60
So how about you?
61
I used to have that period when everything was overwhelming, and it affected my health a lot.
62
How about now?
63
Now, I never work more than 30 hours a week, and I have a lot of free time for myself.
64
And still generating income?
65
Yes, definitely.
66
By building a system and having people work for you.
67
As you mentioned, you have a lot of free time.
68
Do you feel boring? Of course not.
69
If you know how to fill up your free time in the right way.
70
How do you do that?
71
First, pick up a hobby or skill that you want to invest a lot of your time into.
72
Hobby or skill?
73
Yes.
74
For example, even when my work contains a lot of writing, I still write a lot in my free time.
75
Why?
76
Because I love writing, and it doesn't feel like I'm working.
77
And you see, what I write down can eventually benefit me one day.
78
Yeah.
79
Do you have any other hobbies?
80
Yes, I enjoy gardening.
81
Oh, well that's a great hobby.
82
Yes, now I have a small garden full of flowers and trees.
83
It's beautiful.
84
Okay, any other way to fill up your free time?
85
Cooking?
86
I have a lot of time to cook, so why would I not make myself delicious meals, right?
87
I have to admit that spending hours in the kitchen making something nice is very satisfying.
88
Yeah.
89
Also, I'm a fan of video games.
90
You know, do anything as long as it makes you happy.
91
Yeah!
92
How about YouTube and Netflix?
93
I mean, yeah, if you love watching things on those platforms, that's fine.
94
Don't you like it?
95
No, I'm not a fan because it's really wasting time if you have no control of yourself.
96
Yeah, true.
97
Is there anything else you want to share with us today?
98
Yes, the final one is having too much free time isn't really a bad thing.
99
Enjoy it while it lasts and make use of it in a way that makes you feel happy.
100
Thanks a lot for joining us today.
101
We really appreciate it.
102
How much leisure time do you give yourself per day?
103
What are you thinking about, Jill?
104
Uh, nothing.
105
I'm just trying to replan my life.
106
So, how's it going?
107
Uh, not that great.
108
Basically, I'm trying to fix my daily routine.
109
What's wrong with it now?
110
I'm not very productive.
111
Okay, you're trying to make a daily schedule, or what?
112
No, I'm thinking about how much leisure time I should give myself per day.
113
Have you figured it out?
114
Not yet.
115
Something is not right, so I'm kind of confused.
116
To me saying, oh, I have two free time hours, what should I do today to fit that two hour is so weird.
117
Yeah, true. So, any suggestions?
118
I think you overthink a bit.
119
For me, leisure time can be any time I feel relaxed, like having coffee before work in the morning.
120
Yes, but I want to be a bit stricter to myself, you know?
121
In that case, you should schedule a day depending on what the priorities of that day are.
122
Priorities?
123
Yes, then finish them.
124
The time left is your free time.
125
Easy.
126
Sounds nice, though.
127
Right?
128
It's a flexible plan as well, because some days when I need my work done, I can have no free time.
129
And some days you can just lay down chilling for like five hours, right?
130
Exactly, because the goal is being productive, right?
131
As long as you finish what you need to do, you can relax for the rest of the day.
132
Wow, thanks a lot, Mary.
133
Super nice idea you have, and really reasonable.
134
Not at all.
135
I'm just saying from my personal experience.

연습 팁

이 비디오의 속도와 톤에 맞춰 영어 쉐도잉을 할 때는 먼저 비디오를 여러 번 들으면서 각 대화를 이해하는 것이 중요합니다. shadowspeak의 원리를 활용하여 말하는 내용을 따라 하세요. 처음에는 천천히 따라 해보고, 점차 속도를 높이는 것을 추천합니다. 여가 시간에 하는 활동을 표현할 때, 목소리의 감정과 억양을 신경 써서 연습하면 더 자연스러운 영어 회화가 완성될 것입니다. 영어 회화 연습을 통해 친숙한 주제에 대해 자신감을 갖고 이야기할 수 있는 기회를 만드세요. 유튜브 영어 공부를 통해 다양한 상황에서 적용 가능한 문장도 익힐 수 있습니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
