Hi everyone, I'm your IELTS Tutor Jack and in today's episode of the IELTS Plus podcast,
2
we are going to answer lots of questions all about our daily routine.
3
So firstly, I don't know if you can detect this right now, but I do have a sore throat, a bit of a croaky voice.
4
I hope that's not coming across too much in the audio, England next week
5
so I'm shooting an episode today I'm flying to England next week for my sister's wedding
6
and I think
7
while I'm there I'm going to try to shoot a bonus
8
episode to kind of show you a little bit about British life
9
and the kind of houses and gardens in England
10
so you may see that in the upcoming weeks
11
but for today we're going to do this daily routine topic and this is an As you know,
12
I have my strategy for part two.
13
It's pretty tight, it's quite strict, and it allows us to have lots of diversity in the answer.
14
But for daily routine, it doesn't work so well.
15
It's better.
16
to actually talk about your daily routine and just go from wake up to go to bed.
17
So we'll cover that later in part two.
18
And that's what I would like you to do for today's student question.
19
I'd like you to answer
20
simply tell me about your daily routine and just Briefly take me through your day from wake up to go to sleep.
21
What do you typically do?
22
A typical daily routine.
23
So that's your student challenge for today.
24
Tell me about your daily routine.
25
Okay.
26
And I think we're going to get straight into it today.
27
I do have some student questions.
28
I'm going to cover that in some upcoming episodes, plenty more to come.
29
But for today, I want to get into it.
30
Maybe I need to save my voice a little bit.
31
So we'll start off with some part ones.
32
So question one.
33
What is your typical daily routine?
34
I'll keep this brief.
35
This is part one, so I'll keep it brief.
36
Typically, I wake up early, I'm a morning person.
37
I commute to my office, do a full day's work, normally from around 7am Until 7pm.
38
I have.. lunch and dinner in my office and then I head home Normally between 7 and 8 o 'clock,
39
spend a little bit of time with my family and then go to bed.
40
So obviously that's a part one answer, super simple.
41
I could give more, but I'm saving it for later.
42
So you'll hear in part two.
43
Okay.
44
Next question.
45
What part of your day do you enjoy the most?
46
Well, as a morning person, I love the morning.
47
I really do.
48
I love eating breakfast.
49
And I love that period from 7 a .m to 10 a .m where I am most productive.
50
I'm really able to do deep work, focus.
51
I feel like I have more ideas and creativity.
52
creative tasks in the early morning when I am most sharp.
53
good okay so as you may see
54
or hear see in the subtitles of course I am starting
55
to use today's language now I didn't mention it earlier
56
but I will drop it in now all of this language is in the IELTS plus total speaking textbook
57
which is available on www .britplus .net so go and check
58
that out it's helping lots of students around the world I'm getting some good feedback so I hope it helps
59
And let's go to part two now.
60
Bye.
61
describe your daily routine very uh you definitely we've heard this
62
we've definitely seen it come up in the uh exam
63
but it's a rare case where a super rare case actually where i don't like to use my structure,
64
you can there are ways to do it.
65
But I think let's just
66
really stick to the task and go from wake up to go to sleep in as much detail as we can.
67
Now, in order to do this, I am going to make sure I introduce each item of the day and then add some detail.
68
So you'll hear me answer what and why questions.
69
You know, what do I do at that time?
70
What do I eat?
71
Why do I do that?
72
Why do I choose that action?
73
So you'll hear me go through the in chronological order that means in time order And I won't say any more,
74
let's just get two minutes on the clock.
75
okay there you go so two minutes are ready and the question is describe your daily routine my time starts now Okay.
76
My daily routine starts very early in the morning because I'm a morning person.
77
I typically wake up at 6 a .m.
78
I don't even need an alarm.
79
And the first thing I do is go through to my kitchen and have a bowl of oatmeal.
80
A bowl of oatmeal normally consists of oats, of course, fruit, frozen fruit,
81
and some nuts and berries and various things to really set me up for the day and give me energy. at
82
around 7 6 30 I commute to my office it takes around 40 minutes I arrive there
83
and I start work on the kinds of sort of creative tasks where I'm alone
84
which includes things on my laptop maybe making podcasts
85
teaching which is my main job that comes later normally around nine
86
or ten o 'clock i start teaching my lunch happens whenever i can
87
so it kind of fits around my schedule although i'm a very habitual person So I do like consistency.
88
It's very difficult with my job because I have to teach.
89
And so when I have some spare time, normally between 11 and 1, I have my lunch.
90
In the afternoon, if I can, I do try to go to the gym.
91
That's my opportunity to exercise and get some leisure time.
92
Because through the late afternoon and evening, that's when I have most of my lessons.
93
Okay so yeah around four o 'clock i start teaching i try to get my dinner in around five
94
or six o 'clock dinner normally consists of typical korean food sometimes i have a lunch box
95
which I keep in my fridge.
96
There you go.
97
So that was, I think, a pretty decent answer.
98
I did sprinkle in some of the language from today's handout.
99
And overall, I'm pretty happy with that.
100
i think possibly i could have made i could have used some more advanced um connective phrases That would have been nice,
101
perhaps a bit more variety of language, but overall I think that was a reasonable answer.
102
And as you can hear, I just went in chronological order.
103
and elaborated at every opportunity that's the habit you must have
104
do not just go through the times i do this at
105
eight o 'clock this at nine o 'clock this at ten but you must add details at every opportunity Okay.
106
and that's it pretty simple so um i'm going to move on to part three now
107
and our first part three is how can a person's daily routine affect their overall well -being Well,
108
I think a good...
109
daily routine allows you to be healthy, efficient, productive.
110
So in that sense, of course, physically, you'll be healthier and mentally, you'll be healthier.
111
I think that
112
it takes a lot of discipline but once you have a daily routine it means
113
that you'll have a very consistent sleep cycle
114
which is healthy we know that it probably means that you can prioritize more things like sleep and leisure
115
And as I said, I think that makes us happier.
116
Certainly for me, when I have a good daily routine, I tend to feel better.
117
I have more energy and I am able to give more time to things like leisure and creative activities.
118
I think that's probably true for most people.
119
So, yeah, I think actually having a daily routine is really beneficial for people.
120
Now, just one note there, you will notice that was one of the fairly rare cases where I used I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
121
I, I, I, I as the example in part threes we love examples they're excellent to have in your answer but
122
do limit the number of examples you have or give using yourself.
123
that we want to prioritize societal answers.
124
People in general, Korean people, if you're in Korea, wherever you are,
125
try not to focus so much on yourself so i'm just going to do that one today Next question,
126
what are the benefits and drawbacks of having a fixed daily routine?
127
I think the biggest benefit is that you probably have more time.
128
Thank you.
129
in having a fixed daily routine you kind of go through
130
these like for example in the morning you have your morning routine you go through it on autopilot
131
and it happens very smoothly and when these things happen smoothly
132
and you're not delayed you're definitely going to create more time
133
Okay on the other hand perhaps the drawback the biggest drawback of a fixed daily routine
134
is that you might have less flexibility in your life you might actually become a less spontaneous person and therefore
135
Maybe you'll miss some opportunities that if you're more flexible, you'd be able to accommodate in your schedule.
136
Okay.
137
Good, I was really happy with that answer.
138
No "I" as the example and some of the words for today.
139
So I feel like I've covered a lot of the words in today's list.
140
We'll see.
141
Finally, how do daily routines differ between people in different stages of life?
142
Of course, it depends on the person, but definitely in different stages of our life, it's mostly related to sleep.
143
I think, in the early stages of our lives we tend especially teenage years we sleep more we sleep later
144
And as we get older, we...
145
perhaps go to sleep earlier and certainly wake up earlier, and Of course, that really impacts your entire schedule.
146
not only does it mean perhaps you get more or less time but also
147
It can mean that you have to prioritize going to sleep earlier because you know you're going to wake up earlier.
148
Here in Korea, it's definitely a bit of a night owl culture.
149
And it's interesting to talk to people and just realize how different their daily routine is to me as a morning person.
150
So definitely sleep really impacts our daily routine and the time we have.
151
Good.
152
Okay.
153
That was pretty sharp today.
154
I was really happy with the answers.
155
I think, honestly, it's a pretty easy topic, right?
156
If we get that in the exam, we'll be really, really happy. But...
157
a few adjustments need to be made which we talked about today and definitely remember if you get an easy topic
158
that's an opportunity to really use some of your high -level words.
159
Do not get lazy and speak simply because it's such an easy topic.
160
So that's something to keep in mind.
161
that's everything i have today
162
and honestly i think that's everything i can manage with my voice
163
so hopefully i'll be back next week sounding more clear i don't know how it sounded to you
164
but a bit croaky and I'm going to England. So,
165
there will probably be some announcement or perhaps a video related to that i'll uh i'll let you know but
166
Have a wonderful week this week.
167
As I always say, study exceptionally hard.
168
Of course, please give me that like and subscribe, all of those things.
169
I do really appreciate it.
170
And I will see you next week for an undetermined topic,
171
perhaps, but the next one in the curriculum is digital learning.
172
So we'll see.
173
Have a lovely week and I'll see you very soon.
174
Bye bye.
175
Oh, oh you

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.
