I'm Emily.

Hello, everyone.
4
It's great to be here with you all.
5
How are you today, Emily?
6
I'm great, Paul.
7
Very happy for another episode.
8
How are you?
9
I'm fantastic.
10
I feel good today.
11
I'm ready for a fun conversation.
12
Me too.

19
So, Paul, what is our topic today?
20
Today, we talk about our day, our daily routine, what we do every day.
21
Ah, that's a great topic.
22
We use a lot of simple, important English for that.
23
We use the simple present.
24
Yes, the simple present is for routines,
25
habits, things we do every day, or sometimes, or never.
26
It sounds easy and useful.
27
So, to start, Paul, are you a morning person?
28
A morning person?
29
Hmm.
30
No, Emily, I am not a morning person.
31
I like my bed.
32
Oh, I see.
33
So, you wake up late.
34
Yes, I do.
35
On weekends, I wake up very late.
36
On weekdays, for work, I wake up at eight o 'clock.
37
Eight o 'clock is not so late.
38
I am a morning person.
39
I love the morning.
40
Wow, really?
41
So you wake up early?
42
I do.
43
I wake up at six o 'clock every day.
44
Yes, even on weekends.
45
Six o 'clock.
46
Wow, Emily.
47
What do you do so early?
48
Well, first I open the window.
49
I love the morning air.
50
Then I drink a big glass of water.
51
Water?
52
That is very healthy.
53
I need my coffee.
54
The first thing I do is make coffee.
55
Ah, a coffee person.
56
I like coffee too, but in the morning I prefer tea.
57
Tea is good.
58
It's calm.
59
I need energy.
60
So I drink coffee.
61
I always have a big cup.
62
I understand.
63
After my water, I do some exercise.
64
Just a little.
65
Exercise in the morning?
66
You have so much energy!
67
It helps me wake up.
68
After that, I take a shower and then I have breakfast.
69
OK, breakfast.
70
My favourite part of the morning.
71
What do you eat for breakfast, Emily?
72
I usually eat yogurt and fruit.
73
Sometimes I have toast with jam.
74
What about you, Paul?
75
I love a big breakfast.
76
I usually have eggs and toast.
77
And my coffee, of course.
78
Eggs and toast.
79
Yummy.
80
That's a classic breakfast.
81
Yes, it is.
82
I feel ready for the day after my eggs and coffee.
83
So what happens next in your day?
84
You go to work?
85
Yes.
86
I work from Monday to Friday.
87
I work at a small library.
88
I love books.
89
A library.
90
That sounds so nice and quiet.
91
I work in an office.
92
It is not quiet.
93
I can imagine.
94
I like the library because I see many people and many, many books.
95
I start work at 9 o 'clock.
96
I also start at 9.
97
I drive my car to work.
98
The traffic is sometimes bad.
99
Oh, I don't like traffic.
100
I walk to the library.
101
It is very close to my house.
102
You walk?
103
That is wonderful.
104
A nice morning walk.
105
Yes, it's only 10 minutes.
106
I listen to music or a podcast.
107
Sometimes I listen to Mr. English Channel.
108
Good choice.
109
So, we both work.
110
We start at nine.
111
What about lunch?
112
I get hungry around one o 'clock.
113
Me too.
114
I usually bring my lunch from home.
115
I eat a salad or a sandwich.
116
That's smart.
117
I sometimes go to a small cafe near my office.
118
They have good sandwiches.
119
It's nice to go out sometimes.
120
Do you eat.. with people from your work?
121
Yes, I do.
122
I usually eat with my friend David.
123
We talk about sports and movies.
124
That's nice.
125
A good break from work.
126
I eat in a little park near the library when the weather is nice.
127
A park?
128
How lovely!
129
With the sun and the trees.
130
Exactly!
131
It's very relaxing.
132
So, we work, we have lunch, then what?
133
The afternoon.
134
The afternoon.
135
For me, the afternoon at work is busy.
136
Many emails, many phone calls.
137
For me, too.
138
Many people come to the library in the afternoon.
139
Families with children.
140
Oh, that sounds fun.
141
Do you read stories to them?
142
Sometimes, yes.
143
Yes, I love reading stories to the kids.
144
They have big happy eyes.
145
That is so sweet.
146
My afternoon is just more coffee.
147
More coffee for Paul.
148
And when do you finish work?
149
I finish work at 5 o 'clock. And you?
150
I also finish at 5 o 'clock.
151
The library closes and I go home.
152
So, when you get home, what is the first thing you do?
153
Hmm, good question.
154
I have a dog.
155
His name is Max.
156
So the first thing I do is say hello to Max.
157
He is always so happy to see me.
158
Aww, Max.
159
That's a great way to come home.
160
I don't have a pet.
161
You should get a cat.
162
But you are not a morning person, and cats sleep a lot.
163
A perfect match.
164
A cat.
165
Hmm, maybe.
166
My friend has a cat.
167
His name is Leo.
168
Leo is very lazy.
169
He sleeps all day.
170
See?
171
He wakes up.
172
He eats.
173
He sleeps.
174
He eats again.
175
He sleeps again.
176
A simple life.
177
That is a very simple life.
178
Leo is lucky.
179
So, after you say hello to Max, what do you do?
180
I take Max for a walk in the park, the same park where I have lunch.
181
He loves it.
182
He runs and plays.
183
That's nice.
184
Fresh air after a day of work.
185
After I get home, I usually listen to music.
186
Oh, what kind of music do you listen to?
187
I like rock music and jazz.
188
It helps me relax.
189
Sometimes I play my guitar.
190
You play the guitar?
191
Wow, Paul, that's so cool.
192
I try.
193
I'm not a rock star, but I enjoy it.
194
I play for about an hour.
195
That's a fantastic hobby.
196
My hobby is reading.
197
I have many books at home. Of course.
198
You work in a library.
199
It makes sense.
200
Yes, I love to read a good book in the evening.
201
It's quiet and I can travel to other worlds.
202
I understand that.
203
For me, music is like that.
204
So what about dinner?
205
When do you have dinner?
206
I usually cook dinner around seven o 'clock.
207
I like to cook.
208
It's creative.
209
I am not a good cook, Emily.
210
I cook simple things.
211
Pasta is my specialty.
212
Haha.
213
Pasta is great.
214
You can put anything with pasta.
215
That is true.
216
I often make pasta with tomato sauce.
217
Very simple.
218
Very good.
219
It sounds delicious.
220
I like to cook vegetables and chicken or sometimes fish.
221
And Max eats his dinner too, of course. Of course.
222
Max needs his dinner.
223
So, after dinner, what do you do in the evening?
224
I watch a movie sometimes, or a show on TV, or I read my book.
225
I like quiet evenings.
226
Me too.
227
I watch TV or a movie, or I call my family or my friends.
228
Oh, that's very nice.
229
You talk to your family every day?
230
Not every day.
231
I usually call my parents on Wednesday and Sunday.
232
I talk to my sister a few times a week.
233
It's important to talk to family.
234
I usually call my parents on the weekend.
235
Yes, it is.
236
So, after all that, it's time for bed.
237
Yes, the end of the day.
238
Because I wake up early, I go to bed early.
239
That makes sense.
240
What time do you go to bed?
241
I usually go to bed around 10 o 'clock.
242
I read in bed for a few minutes and then sleep.
243
10 o 'clock?
244
That is early for me.
245
I usually go to bed around 11 .30 or midnight.
246
See?
247
I am a morning person and you are a night person.
248
A night owl.
249
Yes, that's me.
250
I like the quiet of the night.
251
So, this is our day.
252
It's interesting how we use the simple present for everything.
253
I wake up.
254
You play the guitar.
255
He sleeps all day.
256
Yes, the verb is simple.
257
For I, you, we, they, the verb is the same.
258
I walk, you walk, we walk, they walk.
259
But for he, she, and it, we add an F.
260
My dog Mac plays with his ball.
261
Your friend's cat
262
Leo eats his food.
263
He eats.
264
She reads.
265
It sleeps.
266
Yes, that little s is very important.
267
It is.
268
And for questions, we use do or does.
269
Like I asked you, do you like coffee?
270
Yes.
271
And you answered, yes, I do.
272
Or you can say, no, I don't.
273
And if I ask about your friend
274
Leo, I say, does he sleep a lot?
275
And the answer is, yes, he does.
276
He definitely does.
277
It's not so difficult when you see it in a real conversation.
278
It's all about routine and habit.
279
Exactly.
280
And everyone has a routine.
281
Our listeners have routines.
282
I wonder what they do every day.
283
Oh, that's a great question.
284
Do they wake up early, like me?
285
Or do they wake up late, like me?
286
Do they drink tea or coffee?
287
Do they walk to work or drive a car?
288
What do they do in the evening?
289
Do they read or play the guitar?
290
So many interesting routines.
291
I think our days are very different, but also a little similar.
292
We work, we eat, we relax.
293
That's true.
294
The small things are different and that makes life interesting.
295
Your guitar, my dog Max.
296
The library, my busy office.
297
It's all part of our daily story.
298
I like that.
299
Our daily story.
300
And the simple presence helps us tell that story.
301
It does.
302
It's a key to speaking English.
303
A very important first step.
304
Well, Paul, I think we had a great chat about our day.
305
It was fun to learn about your routine.
306
It was fun to learn about yours too, Emily.
307
Now I know why you are always so happy in the morning.
308
It's the six o 'clock air and the tea.
309
And the exercise.
310
I will stick to my coffee, thank you very much.
311
Okay, okay.
312
Well, I think that's all the time we have for today.
313
Yes, it is.
314
This was a lot of fun.
315
We hope you all had fun too.
316
We hope you learned a little more about the simple present and how to talk about your day.
317
And now we want to hear from you.
318
Yes.
319
Please leave a comment below this video.
320
Tell us something about your day.
321
You can tell us one thing.
322
For example, I wake up at 7 o 'clock.
323
Or, I drink tea in the morning.
324
Or, tell us, are you a morning person or a night owl?
325
Yes.
326
Let us know.
327
We love reading your comments.
328
It's our favorite part of the week.
329
And give this video a big thumbs up if you liked it.
330
Share it with your friends and family.
331
Thank you all so much for listening.
332
We will see you in the next episode.
333
Bye for now.
334
Stay happy and keep learning.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
