Now, let's talk about today's topic.
14
We're going to explore how to talk about future plans in English.
15
Exactly.
16
From your plans for tomorrow or next week to your biggest dreams for the future.
17
We'll cover it all today.
18
So stay with us, practice along,
19
and by the end of this episode,
20
you'll feel more confident talking about your own future plans in English.
21
That sounds amazing.
22
Let's get started.
23
So let's start with something very common.
24
people often ask, what are you going to do this weekend?
25
It sounds easy, right?
26
Yes, but many English learners make mistakes when answering,
27
and we're going to look at some of those mistakes today.
28
Exactly.
29
But first, let's share our own weekend plans.
30
Max, what are you going to do this weekend?
31
Well, this weekend I'm going to visit my grandparents on Saturday.
32
On Sunday, I'm going to study a little and maybe watch a new series.
33
Sounds nice.
34
In my case, I'm going to meet a friend for lunch on Saturday,
35
and on Sunday I'm going to clean my apartment and read a book.
36
Notice how we both used I'm going to plus the base verb.
37
That's the standard way to answer this question.
38
Now, let's talk about the mistakes learners usually make.
39
One common mistake is to forget the verb to be.
40
For example, students say, I going to visit my friend.
41
That's wrong.
42
Yes, you need the verb am, is, or are.
43
So the correct sentence is,
44
I'm going to visit my friend.
45
Another mistake is to mix up the tense.
46
Many students say, I will visit my friend this weekend.
47
Grammatically it's correct, but it sounds less natural if you already have a plan.
48
Right.
49
Will is usually for spontaneous decisions.
50
But if you already have a plan,
51
you should use going to.
52
Another problem is word order.
53
For example, I'm going to this weekend study English.
54
That's not correct.
55
The right order is, I'm going to study English this weekend.
56
First the verb, then the time expression.
57
So a good answer should look like this.
58
I'm going to study English this weekend.
59
Clear, simple, and natural.
60
Exactly.
61
Let's give a few more examples.
62
I'm going to play soccer with my friends.
63
I'm going to visit my cousin on Sunday.
64
I'm going to cook something special.
65
Now it's your turn.
66
Think for a moment.
67
What are you going to do this weekend?
68
Try to answer in your head or even say it out loud.
69
Great.
70
And remember, use am, is, or are.
71
plus going to plus verb to keep your answer correct and natural.
72
Okay.
73
Now that you know how to answer correctly,
74
let's move on to a little activity with listening.
75
Yeah, good idea.
76
So, in a moment you're going to hear a short audio of two friends talking about their weekend plans.
77
Right.
78
But before you listen, let's go over three key words that will appear in the audio.
79
That way, it'll be easier to follow the conversation.
80
Exactly.
81
So, the first word is schedule.
82
A schedule is basically a plan of activities with times or dates.
83
For example, my schedule is full this weekend with work and family plans.
84
Yeah, and the second word is arrangement.
85
An arrangement is like an agreement or a plan that you have already organized with someone.
86
For example, I already have an arrangement to meet my cousin on Saturday.
87
That's a good one.
88
And the third word is postpone.
89
To postpone means to delay something or move it to a later time.
90
For example, we had to postpone our soccer game because of the rain.
91
Great.
92
So we've got schedule, arrangement, and postpone.
93
Keep them in mind while you listen.
94
Yeah, because here comes the interesting part.
95
In the audio you'll hear a natural conversation,
96
but there will also be some grammar mistakes.
97
Exactly.
98
And your job is to listen carefully.
99
Try to catch those mistakes and think about how you would correct them.
100
Don't worry if you don't catch them all.
101
Yeah, because after the audio,
102
we'll go through the text together,
103
explain the errors, and show you the correct version.
104
Alright then, let's get ready to listen.
105
Hey Sophie, what's up?
106
How's everything going?
107
Oh, hey Alex.
108
I'm good.
109
Just a bit tired, you know.
110
My week has been really long.
111
Yeah, I know that feeling.
112
Same here.
113
So listen, I was thinking,
114
what are you going to do this weekend?
115
Do you already have some plans?
116
Well, yeah, actually I have.
117
On Saturday, I'm going to meet my cousin
118
because she just moved into a new apartment and she invited me to see it.
119
Wait, you going to?
120
Don't you mean you're going to?
121
Yes, you're right.
122
I always forget the am.
123
Anyway, I'm going to visit her and then maybe we'll go shopping together.
124
Sounds nice.
125
What about Sunday?
126
On Sunday, hmm, I don't know.
127
Maybe I will just stay at home and rest.
128
Or I will watch a movie.
129
Nothing really special.
130
Yeah, I get it.
131
Sometimes it's good to have a lazy day.
132
For me, I'm going to play soccer with some friends on Saturday morning.
133
and then in the evening I'll probably cook dinner with my sister.
134
Oh, that's cool.
135
You like cooking, right?
136
Yeah, kind of.
137
I'm not amazing, but I enjoy it.
138
Nice.
139
And tell me, do you have any plans for the next month?
140
Like, not just the weekend, but something bigger?
141
Oh, yeah, actually I do.
142
Next month I'm gonna take an English course at the community center.
143
It's three times a week,
144
and I really want to improve my speaking.
145
That's awesome!
146
I also was thinking to join a course,
147
but I'm not sure yet because my schedule is so full.
148
You was thinking to join?
149
Careful there.
150
It should be, I was thinking of joining.
151
Oh, right.
152
Thanks for correcting me.
153
See, that's why I need the course too.
154
Don't worry, we all make mistakes.
155
But seriously, if you have time,
156
it would be fun to study together.
157
True.
158
I'll check my timetable and maybe I join you.
159
Again, Sophie, maybe I join you?
160
It's better to say maybe I'll join you.
161
Yes, I keep mixing that.
162
Okay, maybe I'll join you.
163
Much better.
164
So what about long term?
165
Like, do you already know what you want to do in the future,
166
like your career or life goals?
167
Well, to be honest, I'm still figuring it out.
168
I want to work in design,
169
maybe graphic design because I really enjoy creating things.
170
But sometimes I'm not sure if I good enough.
171
If I good enough?
172
Careful, it should be if I'm good enough.
173
Right again.
174
See, I told you, my grammar is crazy sometimes.
175
But yeah, design is something I really want to do.
176
And maybe in five years,
177
I'm going to start my own studio.
178
That sounds like a great plan.
179
You're creative, so I think you'll do well.
180
Thanks.
181
And what about you, Alex?
182
What's your big future plan?
183
Well, I've been thinking a lot lately.
184
Actually, I want to move abroad at some point,
185
maybe to Canada or the UK.
186
Really?
187
That's exciting.
188
Why Canada?
189
Because I think the job prospects are better there.
190
And also my cousin lives in Toronto.
191
She says life there is good even if the weather is cold.
192
Yeah, I've heard that.
193
Do you already have an arrangement to move or it's just an idea for now?
194
At the moment, it's just an idea,
195
but I'm going to start saving money seriously next year.
196
That's smart.
197
Moving abroad needs a lot of preparation.
198
Totally.
199
And speaking to preparation, do you have any New Year's resolutions?
200
Hmm.
201
Good question.
202
Let me think.
203
Yeah.
204
I want to read more books in English.
205
At least one every two months.
206
And I also going to practice speaking more often,
207
maybe with a language partner online.
208
Careful again.
209
I also going to practice.
210
It should be I'm also going to practice.
211
Ah, yes, I knew it sounded strange.
212
I'm also going to practice speaking more often.
213
Thanks.
214
No problem.
215
That's the idea.
216
We learn together.
217
Exactly.
218
Oh, and another plan I have is to travel.
219
I would love to visit Spain next summer.
220
Spain!
221
That's cool.
222
What would you like to see there?
223
Definitely Barcelona.
224
I've seen pictures of the Sagrada Familia and Parc Gull.
225
They look amazing.
226
Yeah, I've heard Barcelona is beautiful and the food is great too.
227
For sure.
228
I also want to practice Spanish while I'm there.
229
It would be fun.
230
That's a great plan.
231
For me, in the future,
232
I think I'll probably study something related to technology, maybe computer science.
233
Oh, really?
234
That's interesting.
235
Technology is everywhere now.
236
Yeah, exactly.
237
And the job outlook is very good.
238
So even though I'm not sure yet,
239
I think it's a good option.
240
Makes sense.
241
You know, it's funny because when we talk about the future,
242
sometimes we say I'm going to and sometimes I'll.
243
It's easy to mix them.
244
True.
245
But here's the trick.
246
I'm going to is for plans already decided,
247
like I'm going to study English.
248
And I'll is for decisions you make in the moment or predictions,
249
like I'll probably study computer science.
250
Yeah, that helps.
251
Okay, last question.
252
Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
253
Hmm, 10 years.
254
Well, I'll be in my mid-30s.
255
Hopefully I'll have a stable job,
256
maybe a family, and if things go well, I'll be living abroad.
257
That's a nice vision.
258
For me, in 10 years,
259
I hope I'll have my design studio,
260
maybe travel a lot, and of course, speak English perfectly.
261
Yes, fluent English for both of us.
262
Exactly.
263
Okay, so let's see if our plans really happen.
264
Time will tell.
265
Alright, let's talk about the mistakes we heard in that conversation.
266
Did you notice some of them?
267
Yeah, there were several grammar issues,
268
the kind that many learners at a B1 or B2 level usually make.
269
Let's go through them one by one.
270
First, one of the friends said,
271
I going to meet my cousin.
272
The mistake here is forgetting the verb to be.
273
It should be, I'm going to meet my cousin.
274
Exactly.
275
And this mistake happens because in some languages,
276
like Spanish, you don't need the verb to be before the future construction.
277
So learners sometimes translate directly.
278
The tip here is, every time you use going to,
279
remember it always needs am,
280
is or are in front.
281
Another mistake was, I was thinking to join a course.
282
That's not correct.
283
The verb thinking is normally followed by of or about plus an e-ing form.
284
So the correct way is,
285
I was thinking of joining a course.
286
That's a really common mistake because learners confuse to as part of the infinitive.
287
But after thinking, you never use the infinitive.
288
You always say thinking of plus a verb with ing.
289
Then there was this sentence.
290
Maybe I join you.
291
Now that's not right.
292
In English, when you talk about the future in this way,
293
you can't just use the present form of the verb,
294
it should be, maybe I'll join you.
295
Yes, and this is interesting.
296
Many students avoid will and try to use the present tense because in their language the future might be formed differently.
297
The tip is, when you talk about something possible or not 100% decided,
298
will is the natural choice.
299
Another mistake was, sometimes I'm not sure if I'm good enough.
300
Here, the verb to be is missing again.
301
The correct version is, I'm not sure if I'm good enough.
302
And notice, this isn't just a small grammar slip.
303
Missing am changes the sentence completely, and it sounds unnatural.
304
So the advice here is,
305
always check your sentence for the verb to be, especially after if.
306
Finally, there was, I also going to practice speaking more often.
307
Again, missing the verb to be.
308
The correct form is, I'm also going to practice speaking more often.
309
And what I want to highlight is that these mistakes are not about vocabulary.
310
They're about structure.
311
Learners know the words, but the challenge is putting them together in the right order.
312
And that's something worth remembering.
313
At B1 to B2 level,
314
it's not usually about learning new words,
315
but about making your sentences sound natural and grammatically solid.
316
So, to recap, the most important tips are very simple.
317
Always use am, is, or are before going to.
318
After thinking, use of or about with a verb in ing,
319
never to with an infinitive.
320
For possibilities, use will instead of the present tense.
321
And always check that the verb to be is there,
322
For example, in a sentence like, if I'm good enough.
323
Great.
324
And remember, making mistakes is part of the process.
325
The goal is to notice them,
326
understand why they happen, and then practice the correct form until it feels natural.
327
Exactly.
328
That's why exercises like this are so useful.
329
You practice listening, you identify errors,
330
and you learn how to avoid them in your own speaking.
331
So, before we finish, let's take a quick look at some expressions from today
332
that are super useful when you talk about the future.
333
Yeah, because if you only say,
334
I'm going to, all the time your English sounds a bit basic.
335
At B1 or B2 level,
336
you can use richer phrases.
337
For example, one really good one is, I'm planning to.
338
This is great when you already have an idea and you are organizing it.
339
For example, I'm planning to start a photography course next month.
340
Right.
341
And another one is, I'm considering.
342
This shows that you're not 100% sure,
343
but you are thinking about it.
344
For example, you can say,
345
I'm considering moving to another city for work.
346
I like that one.
347
And then we had, I hope to.
348
This is perfect for talking about your goals or dreams.
349
For example, I hope to travel abroad next year.
350
Exactly.
351
And here's another really natural one.
352
I was thinking of.
353
It makes you sound more fluent when you talk about ideas for the future.
354
For example, I was thinking of joining a gym.
355
And don't forget I'd like to.
356
It's softer and more polite than I want to.
357
For example, I'd like to improve my English this year.
358
So, to recap.
359
I'm planning to.
360
I'm considering.
361
I hope to, I was thinking of, and I'd like to.
362
These are really useful tools if you want your English to sound more natural and less repetitive.
363
Exactly.
364
If you start using these expressions,
365
you'll notice that your English conversations about the future become richer,
366
more flexible, and more interesting.
367
Alright, we've reached the end of today's episode.
368
We really hope this lesson helps you feel more confident talking about your future plans in English.
369

연습 팁
유튜브 영어 공부를 하면서 shadow speak 연습을 통해 자신의 발음을 개선할 수 있습니다. 이 비디오의 속도와 톤에 맞춰 따라 하는 것이 중요한데, 발음을 정확하게 일치시키도록 노력하세요. 평소 말할 때 사용하는 자연스러운 톤으로 자신이 하고 싶은 미래 계획을 큰 소리로 반복해 보세요. 예를 들어 "I'm going to visit my friend"라고 외치며 발음의 억양과 리듬을 따라하세요. 이처럼 shadowspeak 기법은 IELTS 스피킹 시험 준비에도 도움이 됩니다. 친구와 함께 연습하거나 혼자서도 해볼 수 있으니, 여러 번 반복하여 자기 신체화된 대화 능력을 키우세요.
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.
