0:00Vanessa:
Do you want to learn real English, how it
0:03is used in the real world? Well, I have some good
news. Today, you are going to practice speaking,
0:10repeating after me about my morning routine, which
is probably similar to yours. You are actually
0:18going to speak English today. Yes. Hi. I'm Vanessa
from speakenglishwithvanessa.com and like always,
0:26I have created a free PDF worksheet with
all of today's important sentences, tips,
0:33and ideas so that you can speak English
better and more fluently. You can click
0:38on the link in the description to download this
free PDF worksheet today. It is my gift to you.
0:44In today's lesson, you will be speaking out loud
and repeating after me. This is called shadowing.
0:51It's where you take a sentence that you want
to say yourself, that you want to imitate,
0:57and you say it directly after someone else. This
is a fabulous way to improve your pronunciation,
1:03your vocabulary, and just your speaking confidence
in general. I'm going to say a sentence and then
1:09I'll give you a little tip about that sentence.
I'll say it again, and then there will be a pause.
1:15This pause is for you. It's so that you can repeat
the sentence, shadow directly what I said. And
1:23because I have magical teacher ears, I can hear
you around the world no matter where you are,
1:30so you better be following the directions. I want
you to speak out loud. Don't care who's listening,
1:35your dog, your family, people on the train.
You are improving your English, so who cares
1:41what they think? Make sure that you speak out
loud during the pause today into this lesson.
1:47Are you ready to get started with the beginning of
the morning? The beginning of our morning routine,
1:53let's go. My alarm goes off at 6:30 A.M. every
morning. We usually use this phrasal verb to
2:00go off for an alarm. My alarm goes off. I'm going
to say this sentence one more time and then I'll
2:06pause so that you can repeat. My alarm goes off
at 6:30 A.M. every morning. Great work. Sometimes
2:20I hit snooze and get a few more minutes of
sleep. We use this phrase to hit snooze,
2:26to talk about pushing the button on your alarm
or on your phone that will help you to get a few
2:32more minutes of sleep. Not the best sleep,
but a few more minutes of sleep. Sometimes
2:37I hit snooze and get a few more minutes
of sleep. Now, it's your turn. Go ahead.
2:48When my alarm goes off again, I roll out of bed.
I love this phrase, to roll out of bed. It just
2:54means that you tired. You're not really rolling
onto the floor, but you are so tired and you're
3:01getting out of bed. Let me say it again. When
my alarm goes off, I roll out of bed. Oh no,
3:11I overslept. Don't forget that final T,
I overslept. Let me say it again. Oh no,
3:19I overslept. Every now and then, I sleep in.
Every now and then means occasionally. Every
3:29now and then I sleep in. But more often than
not, I wake up the first time my alarm goes
3:38off. More often than not means that it happens
more often than it doesn't happen. Let me say
3:46it one more time. But more often than not,
I wake up the first time my alarm goes off.
3:56I'm a morning person, but my husband is not. A
morning person is someone who enjoys waking up
4:02in the morning. I'm a morning person, but my
husband is not. I'm usually an early riser,
4:12but this morning I overslept. Make sure
you pronounce the hard R's in this phrase.
4:18Early riser. I'm usually an early riser, but this
morning I overslept. Why do I wake up early? Well,
4:32the early bird catches the worm. Don't
forget the hard R's in this phrase too,
4:38early bird catches the worm. Why do I wake up
early? Well, the early bird catches the worm.
4:54Next, I take off my glasses and put in
my contacts. Here we talk about taking
5:03off glasses, putting on glasses, putting
in contacts and taking out contacts. Next,
5:12I take off my glasses and put in my contacts.
Then I hop in the shower. Do you think I'm
5:23really hop hop hopping in the shower? No.
It just means I go to the shower quickly.
5:29I hop in the shower. I put my hair up and
brush my teeth. Don't forget that final TH,
5:39teeth. Your tongue needs to be between your teeth
to say the word teeth. I put my hair up and brush
5:49my teeth. Then I pick out my clothes and get
dressed. Notice at the end of the word dressed,
6:01it sounds like a T, even though it's ED, dressed.
Then I pick out my clothes and get dressed.
6:14I usually make the bed. To make the bed means
that you pull the blankets up and you make it
6:20look nice and neat. Usually, I make the bed. Then
I go wake up the kids and help them get ready for
6:31school. We use this phrase, help them get ready,
when you are doing something for someone else,
6:38making them breakfast, helping pick out their
clothes, maybe helping them get dressed, helping
6:44them get all of their things in their backpack.
You are helping them get ready. Next, I go wake
6:50up my kids and help them get ready for school. I
tell them, "Rise and shine." Rise and shine is a
7:03very cheerful morning phrase that you can use to
wake someone up. I tell them "Rise and shine."
7:13Usually, my kids are pretty happy in the
morning, but sometimes they wake up on
7:18the wrong side of the bed. This phrase
just means you are in a bad mood. Some
7:24days it's just like that. You just wake
up in a bad mood. Let me say that again.
7:29Usually, my kids are pretty happy in the morning,
but sometimes they just wake up on the wrong side
7:36of the bed. Once the kids are awake, my husband
whips up something for breakfast. To whip up
7:48means to quickly make something. We don't have
hours to make breakfast, so we usually whip up
7:54breakfast. Once the kids are awake, my husband
whips up something for breakfast. Remember,
8:07I can hear you no matter where you are,
so make sure you're repeating out loud.
8:12While my husband makes breakfast, I throw together
some lunches. To throw together has the same idea
8:19here as hop in the shower, roll out of bed,
whip up some breakfast. In the morning, we're
8:24in a hurry, so I throw together some lunches.
I try to be a little bit thoughtful about it,
8:30but it's usually a fast process. While he makes
breakfast, I throw together some lunches. We sit
8:42down at the table and scarf down breakfast. Some
days we scarf down faster than others, but this
8:50phrasal verb to scarf down means you eat quickly.
We sit down at the table and scarf down breakfast.
9:02"We got to get going. We don't want to
be late," this is a phrase I often say.
9:07You can pronounce this gotta. In American
English, the T changes to a D. We gotta
9:15get going. We don't wanna, here, we're
going to combine want to to become wanna,
9:21to be late, wanna be late. We got to
get going. We don't want to be late.
9:33They grab their things and head out the door.
This phrasal verb to head out means to leave.
9:41They grab their things and head out the
door. I see them off as they leave the
9:51house. To see someone off means that
you're saying goodbye. For my family,
9:56we usually stand by the side of the road and
wave as my husband drives my oldest son to
10:02school and we wave and say goodbye. I see them
off. I see them off as they leave the house.
10:12Once they leave for school, I take a moment to
tidy up the kitchen. To tidy up means I just put
10:18things back where they belong. Once they leave for
school, I take a moment to tidy up the kitchen.
10:30Now, it's time for me to plan out my day. To plan
out means to plan. Sometimes we use phrasal verbs
10:37instead of regular plain verbs because it adds
more flavor to our vocabulary. So you could say,
10:44"I plan my day," but isn't it more
fun to say I plan out my day. Let's
10:49say that sentence again. Now it's time
for me to plan out my day. Generally,
10:59I get more work done in the first part of the
day. Take a look at the pronunciation of this
11:05word. Generally, generally. Generally, I get
more work done in the first part of the day.
11:18I like to check my email first thing, so
that if I need to respond to anything,
11:22I can do that first. This lovely phrase, first
thing, is talking about the first thing that I do,
11:29but notice how it's used grammatically. I like to
check my email first thing. We're not adding any
11:37prepositions around this. Any other phrases.
It's just I like to do it first thing. Let's
11:43say that sentence. I like to check my email first
thing, so that if I need to respond to anything,
11:49I can do that first. Next, I check in on my
students and see if they need any help or
12:02have any questions. This phrasal verb to check in
on, is a three-part phrasal verb. To check in on,
12:10and it really means that you're
just monitoring someone's progress.
12:14Next, I check in on my students to see if
they need any help or have any questions.
12:25Then I get started on the rest of my to-do list.
This phrase to-do list means things that I need,
12:32guess what, to do. That's right. Next, I get
started on the rest of my to-do list. After
12:44working for a few hours, I take a break
and make some tea. To take a break means
12:50that you just rest for a period of time.
For me, when I take a break in the summer,
12:54I like to drink some cold green tea, and in
the winter I like to drink some hot green
12:59tea. After working for a few hours,
I take a break and make some tea.
