Negative Thinking while Learning

Today we're talking about a piece of vocabulary that we can use to say that we haven't decided what our opinion is yet. We're still thinking about a topic and deciding what we think of it. This is the idiom "the jury is (still) out". I hope you find it useful!

Don't forget that I'm a full time English coach and tutor, right here on iTalki. So if you use English as a second language at work and you'd like to improve your professional communication skills then feel free to book some of my time and let's get to work!

In this episode, we explore the fascinating world of hobbies. Hobbies are activities that bring joy, relaxation, and opportunities to connect with others. Whether you're just starting to learn English or have some experience, this episode is designed to help you expand your vocabulary and confidently discuss your hobbies in English.

Hosted by Louis, this engaging episode begins by introducing various hobbies, such as reading, playing a musical instrument, hiking, painting, cooking, and photography. You'll have a moment to reflect on which hobbies interest you personally.

Next, Louis guides you through essential phrases to express your favorite hobbies. You'll learn how to answer the question, "What's your favorite hobby?" by using the phrase "My favorite hobby is..." For example, "My favorite hobby is reading." Additionally, you'll practice saying, "I enjoy..." followed by your preferred hobby, such as "I enjoy hiking" or "I enjoy cooking."

Building on these phrases, Louis teaches you how to use "I like to..." followed by a verb to describe your hobbies. For instance, "I like to play the guitar." These simple structures enable you to share your hobbies and interests with others more confidently.

To foster engaging conversations, Louis demonstrates how to ask questions about someone's hobbies. You'll practice asking, "What hobbies do you have?" and "Do you play any sports?" Furthermore, you'll learn to inquire about frequency with the question, "How often do you [hobby]?" For example, "How often do you go hiking?"

By the end of this episode, you'll be equipped with the necessary vocabulary and phrases to discuss hobbies with ease. Remember, practice makes perfect, so be sure to utilize these phrases with friends or language exchange partners. Tune in to the podcast and embark on an exciting journey of learning and sharing your hobbies in English. Happy learning!
