1
Learning English helps me to pick up a side gig and make ends meet.
2
SBS acknowledges the traditional custodians of country and their connections and continuous care for the skies,
3
lands and waterways throughout Australia.
4
Do you maybe feel like you aren't earning enough?
5
A lot of my friends are feeling like that and they're looking for ways to earn some extra money.
6
So I thought it would be useful to learn how to talk about it.
7
Hi, I'm Josipa and in this episode we are practicing everyday English you can use to talk
8
when you are working on the side.
9
If you are working on the side, you are doing a small job or activity you do outside your main job to earn extra money.
10
It could be anything from driving people around to selling something online
11
or even turning a hobby into a bit of extra cash.
12
By the way, if anyone needs a dog sitter, let me know because I'm available.
13
Anyway, let's join Alan and Claire.
14
They've just finished work and are walking down the street together.
15
Claire notices Alan has gone quiet.
16
He looks like he is thinking about something.
17
I might do some work on the side.
18
This job isn't cutting it.
19
Tell me about it.
20
I've picked up a side gig recently.
21
Is it hard to juggle everything?
22
I've already got so much on my plate.
23
Yeah, a bit.
24
I just do it in my spare time.
25
It's not much, but helps make ends meet.
26
These days, with the cost of living going up, no wonder that so many people are looking for ways to earn extra income.
27
Extra income is additional money you earn on top of your main income or salary.
28
Let's see what other useful phrases we can practice first.
29
Alan said.
30
I might do some work on the side.
31
So, as we already heard, when you say that you have some work on the side,
32
you have another small job to earn extra income that is different from your main employment.
33
For example, I do a bit of graphic design work on the side.
34
You could also say, I might take a side hustle.
35
To take on a side hustle is to start doing extra work outside your main job to earn more money.
36
Hustle means to work hard and move quickly to get something done.
37
It can also mean trying hard to make money or succeed, often with energy and effort.
38
For example, you could say...
39
I've taken on a side hustle doing freelance design.
40
If you're doing freelance work, you are earning money by working for yourself and doing jobs for different people or companies.
41
Alan also said, My main job just isn't cutting it.
42
If something isn't cutting it, it is not enough or not good enough for what you need.
43
In this case, Alan's job isn't giving him enough money.
44
You can use this phrase in other situations too. For example.
45
The old phone isn't cutting it anymore.
46
I need a new one.
47
Next, Claire said.
48
Tell me about it.
49
I've picked up a side gig recently.
50
Tell me about it.
51
This is a very common informal expression.
52
It means you strongly agree with someone, especially when they are talking about a problem.
53
Claire also said...
54
I've picked up a side gig recently.
55
A side gig is another way of saying a job on the side.
56
That is, in addition to your main job.
57
It's a small job you do to earn extra money.
58
And to pick up often means to collect something or someone.
59
But here it means to start doing something.
60
Do you remember what Alan asked Claire?
61
He said...
62
Is it hard to juggle everything?
63
to juggle literally means to throw things up in the air and catch them all in a pattern, the way that clowns do in a circus.
64
Here, it means to do and manage several things at the same time.
65
Let's say you go to work every day, and you're also taking care of your small children and managing things at home.
66
You could say...
67
I'm juggling so much at the moment.
68
Another way to say the same thing is a phrase Alan used when he said...
69
I've already got so much on my plate.
70
If you have a lot on your plate, you have a lot of responsibilities or things to do.
71
You're busy and it can feel a bit difficult to manage at time.
72
Yeah, a bit.
73
I just do it in my spare time.
74
It's not much, but helps make ends meet.
75
When Claire says a bit, she's agreeing with Alan and saying that she also is finding things a little difficult to manage.
76
She says it helps her make ends meet.
77
If you can make ends meet, You're having enough money to pay for basic costs like rent,
78
food, bills and transport.
79
For example, you could say I repair cars on weekends.
80
I just do it in my spare time.
81
It's not much, but it helps make ends meet.
82
Claire also said I just do it in my spare time.
83
Your spare time is the time when you are not working or being busy with other jobs at home or responsibilities.
84
It's your free time, your spare time.
85
Let's say you are getting to know someone a bit better.
86
You could ask...
87
What do you do in your spare time?
88
Or if you are planning something with friends, but you are not sure if they are free, you could say...
89
Do you have any spare time this weekend?
90
And here's a tip for you.
91
We often use in my spare time when talking about hobbies or things we enjoy.
92
In my spare time, I like watching true crime documentaries.
93
And what do you do in your spare time?
94
So, when you are talking about earning extra income, You can use phrases like picking up a side gig
95
or taking on a side hustle or doing something in your spare time to earn money.
96
Now, let's listen to the dialogue once again and then we'll practice.
97
I might do some work on the side.
98
This job isn't cutting it.
99
Tell me about it.
100
I've picked up a side gig recently.
101
Is it hard to juggle everything?
102
I've already got so much on my plate.
103

104
I just do it in my spare time.
105
It's not much, but helps make ends meet.
106
It's time to practice.
107
See if you remember the meaning before hearing the answer.
108
If something isn't cutting it, it's...
109
If something isn't cutting it, it's not enough or not good enough for what you need.
110
If you have a lot on your plate, you...
111
If you have a lot on your plate, you have a lot of responsibilities or things to do.
112
Now, let's listen and repeat after Alan and Claire.
113
I've picked up a side gig recently.
114
I do a bit of graphic design work on the side.
115
I might take a side hustle.
116

| Cấu trúc | Trong video |
|---|---|

| Khả năng với “might / may” might/may + động từ — điều có thể xảy ra nhưng không chắc | might do · might take |

- Cụm phụ âm cuối — đọc đủ từng âm, đừng nuốt âm cuối: freelance /ˈfɹiˌlæns/, transcript /ˈtɹæn.skɹɪpt/
- Âm /tʃ/, /dʒ/ và /ʒ/ — tiếng Việt không có, đừng đọc thành “ch” hay “gi”: juggle /ˈd͡ʒʌɡəl/, juggling /ˈd͡ʒʌɡəlɪŋ/, acknowledge /əkˈnɑ.lɪd͡ʒ/
- Âm /æ/ — mở miệng rộng hơn âm “e”: freelance /ˈfɹiˌlæns/, graphic /ˈɡɹæfɪk/, transcript /ˈtɹæn.skɹɪpt/
Cách luyện với video này
- Nghe hết video một lần, chưa cần nói, và ghi lại những từ bạn chưa biết.
- Nói đuổi từng câu ở tốc độ bình thường, lặp lại mỗi câu đến khi nhịp của bạn khớp với người nói.
- Ghi âm giọng mình rồi so với bản gốc, chú ý các từ như phrase, hobby, graphic.
Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
