So we got on the busand we fit just right.But the driver was driving like a maniac. I had to hold on so tight so that Iwouldn't fall or trip. I could barely hold on.Then the driver stopped one more time to pick up a family. It was a mother andher two young boys. They were very short so the two boys could not hold on toany of the handles. So they were going side to side falling and tripping. I toldone of the boys "hold on to me" and one older lady said the same. One older ladytold the boys "hold on to me! hold on to my sweater". So the boy did. He grabbedthe lady and held her tight and he didn't fall anymore.It was a very nice scene. It was a very cute experience. We all rode likesardines the whole way home. And once we finally arrived, we all said goodbye,nice to meet you, and it was a very nice experience.I always have nice experiences on the bus.

  • A1 English Listening Practice - Jobs 22.04.2026 4dk
    Hey everybody, welcome to this A1 English Listening Practice video! You can use this video to practice your listening and comprehension as I speak. Before we start, remember to subscribe to the channel, click on the bell, and follow us on Instagram. You ready?So today, I'm going to talk about jobs. This is a really common topic, because most adults have a job or some type of work. Let's talk about the different types of jobs that people have.One common type of job is a part-time job. A part-time job is a job where you work fewer hours. I had part-time jobs when I was younger. I worked part-time at a clothing store, at a restaurant, and at my university. Many students have part-time jobs. They study in the morning and work in the evening. I did this when I was a student. In the U.S., many teenagers get a job when they're in high school. I got my first job when I was 17. I was in my last year of high school. I worked at a clothing store called Hollister. I didn't like that job, but I liked earning money. Some of my classmates worked at fast-food restaurants, like McDonald's.I also had a part-time job when I was in college. When I was in college, I worked at the university's dining hall. A dining hall is the place on a university campus where students eat. I worked as a cook and a dishwasher at my dining hall. I didn't like washing dishes. I liked cooking more than dishwashing. How about you? Have you ever had a part-time job?Okay, now let's talk about full-time jobs. In the U.S., people who have full-time jobs usually work 40 hours a week or more. Some people work a lot more, like 50 or 60 hours a week. For some full-time jobs, you need a college degree. For other full-time jobs, you don't need a degree. In the U.S., there are many different jobs available in different industries. Some examples of industries are Finance, Marketing, Medicine, IT, and Education. I work in the education industry because I'm a teacher.There are many good jobs in the U.S. for people who don't have degrees. For example, you can be an electrician, a plumber, a truck driver, or many other things. People who have these jobs make good money in the U.S. Most salaries in America are high compared to other countries. Americans make a lot of money, but they have to spend a lot of money. Life is very expensive in the U.S.The normal schedule for full-time jobs is from 9am to 5pm in the U.S. However, some people start work earlier, like at 8am. And other people end later, like at 6pm. I start work pretty early, at 7:30am. But, I also finish early, at 4:30pm. I prefer starting work early and finishing work early. Most people work Monday to Friday, and they have weekends off. Most people don't like working on the weekends. I work in the morning on Saturdays, but I have Sundays off. I never work on Sundays. How about you? What's your work schedule?Alright, that's all for today. Leave a comment and tell me about your job.

  • A1 English Listening Practice - Soccer 22.04.2026 4dk
    Hey everybody, welcome to this A1 English Listening Practice video! You can use this video to practice your listening and comprehension as I speak. Before we start, remember to subscribe to the channel, click on the bell, and follow us on Instagram. You ready?So today, I'm going to talk about soccer. This is a really popular topic, because many people love soccer. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. It's the most important sport in the world. Let's talk first about the rules of soccer. The objective of the game is to score more goals than the other team. If your team scores more goals than the other team, your team wins and the other team loses. But, it's not easy to score goals. It's hard. Each team has defenders, who try to stop you from scoring goals. Midfielders are the players that play in the middle of the field. They have to run a lot. I never liked being a midfielder, because I can't run a lot. The players that usually score goals are called forwards. Being a forward is fun, because scoring goals is fun. Also, each team has a goalkeeper. The goalkeeper can use his hands and his whole body to defend the goal. In total, each team has 11 players on the field.Now, let's talk about soccer's popularity. In most countries, soccer is the biggest sport. Most cities have a local soccer team, and the people support their city's team. There are also national teams. Every 4 years, national teams compete for the World Cup. During this time, everyone supports their country's team. Some nations are very good, like Germany, France, and Brazil. Other nations are not so good. The U.S. doesn't have a very good team because soccer is not very popular in the U.S. Most Americans prefer other sports, like American football, basketball, and baseball. Many children play soccer in the U.S., but not many people enjoy watching soccer. I played soccer when I was a child, and it was fun for me. I liked being a forward, because I wanted to score goals. I don't play soccer now, though.Okay, lastly, let's talk about soccer leagues around the world. Most countries have a domestic soccer league with local teams. Some famous soccer leagues include the English Premier League, La Liga in Spain, Bundesliga in Germany, and Serie A in Italy. These leagues have some very good teams. Some of the best teams in the world include Real Madrid, Barcelona, Liverpool, Bayern Munich, and Juventus. In the past, I really liked watching Cristiano Ronaldo play. I watched him play for Real Madrid, Juventus, and Portugal. My favorite matches are the Champions League matches. The Champions League is the highest competition for European teams. Every year in the Champions League, the best teams in the world play against each other. It's always really exciting.Nowadays, I'm not really interested in sports anymore. But once in a while, I like watching soccer. Alright, that's all for today. Leave a comment and tell me who your favorite soccer team is.

  • A1 English Listening Practice - Homes 22.04.2026 4dk
    Hey everybody, welcome to this A1 English Listening Practice video!You can use this video to practice your listening and comprehension as I speak.Before we start, remember to subscribe to the channel, click on the bell, and follow us on Instagram.You ready?So today, I'm going to talk about homes.This is an important topic, because we talk about our homes a lot.Let's talk about the different types of homes.Some people live in houses, some people live in apartments, and other people live in other types of homes.Houses and apartments are the most common types of homes.In big cities, people often live in apartments.Apartments are very common in big cities.They're usually smaller and cheaper than houses.Some apartments are in really tall buildings.These buildings can have 20 or 30 floors sometimes.I don't want to live on the 30th floor.I prefer living on the first or second floor.If you live outside the city, you probably live in a house, not an apartment.People that live in the countryside usually live in houses.These houses are usually bigger than apartments.They also have backyards.A backyard is the place behind your house, where you can have grass, trees, gardens, or a pool.When I was a kid, I loved playing in my backyard.It was fun to play outside every day.Most apartments don't have backyards. They usually have balconies instead.Okay, now let's talk about the price of houses and apartments.In the U.S., houses and apartments can be really expensive if you live in a big city.In my home state of California, houses and apartments cost a lot of money.The average price of a house in California is almost $600,000. Crazy, huh?It's also really expensive to rent an apartment in California.In the U.S., people usually rent apartments, but in some other countries, people often buy apartments.When I was younger, I shared an apartment with other roommates.It's common to have roommates in the U.S.Sometimes you have good roommates, and sometimes you have bad roommates.Have you ever had roommates before?Okay, now let's talk about other types of homes.Some people live in condos, which are similar to apartments.Single condos are part of a bigger building or complex, just like apartments.But, in the U.S., many people buy condos, but they don't buy apartments.One more type of home that exists in the U.S. is the townhouse.Townhouses are similar to normal houses, but they're often smaller and cheaper.Also, they're usually part of a community of townhouses.So, there are several different types of homes that people can buy or rent.Some people prefer houses, some people prefer apartments, and other people prefer condos or townhouses.I think I prefer houses. I hope I can buy a house in the future.Alright, that's all for today.Leave a comment and tell me what type of home you live in.And remember to subscribe to the channel, click on the bell, and follow us on Instagram for more English tips and lessons.I'll see you next time!

Do you prefer running outside or on the treadmill?Okay, another popular type of exercise is weightlifting.People lift weights to build muscle and get stronger.Most people go to the gym to lift weights.In the past, I went to the gym often to work out.I lifted weights every week at the gym.But now, I don't go to the gym.I have some weights at home, so I can lift weights here.But, I don't have a lot of equipment, so I can't do many exercises.Some people have their own mini-gym in their garage. I wish I had this.Weightlifting is hard, because weights are heavy.If you're not strong, you can't lift a lot of weight.But, if you start lifting weights, you can get stronger.Alright, another popular type of exercise is playing sports.Playing sports is good exercise and it's fun.Some people don't need to run or lift weights because they already play sports.Playing sports is good for your health.When I was young, I played many sports. I was pretty healthy.Sometimes, I played sports with my friends, and other times, I played by myself.What's your favorite sport?Another popular type of exercise is hiking.This is one of my favorite activities.Hiking is a great way to exercise, because you don't need any equipment. It's free.Also, you can enjoy nature when you hike.If you live in a rural area, you probably have many places to hike.If you live in a big city, it's harder to find places to hike.I love hiking in the mountains, the forest, the desert, and in the hills.In the U.S., hiking is a very popular activity.People go hiking with their friends and sometimes with their dogs.In other countries, hiking isn't so popular.When I have the chance, I try to find new places to go hiking.Okay, one more type of exercise is walking.This is the simplest form of exercise. You can walk anywhere.I try to walk every day if I can, because I really like walking.So, overall, there are many different types of exercise.You should try to exercise every day if you can.Alright, that's all for today.Leave a comment and tell me which type of exercise you like best.And remember to subscribe to the channel, click on the bell, and follow us on Instagram for more English tips and lessons.I'll see you next time!

It can be difficult.You need to eat healthy food, and you need to exercise.Many people go to the gym in January because their new year's resolution is to lose weight.But, not everyone reaches their goal.Many people quit.Okay, another common new year's resolution is to study English more.This is a good new year's resolution.Some people want to learn English to help their career.If you speak English, you can have better opportunities.For some jobs, you need to speak English, and for other jobs, you need to read and write in English.English is important for many jobs.Maybe English will help your career, too.This year, my goal is also to study more languages.Alright, another common new year's resolution is to read more books.Some people are very busy, so they don't read a lot.Other people are not good at reading, but they want to improve.And some people don't like reading, but they need to read.Many people have the new year's resolution to read more.I think that's good!I want to read more too.I want to read many books this year.How many books do you want to read this year?Maybe you can read books in English this year.That's a good resolution.Okay, another common new year's resolution is to learn a new activity.This is a fun one.There are many activities that you can learn.Some people learn a new sport.Other people learn a skill.It's good to learn new things.Maybe you can take a class to learn something new.There are many classes that teach you different skills.You can look for classes in your city.Another common new year's resolution is to quit smoking.This is not a fun resolution, but it's good.I don't smoke, so I don't need to quit.But, I could stop other bad habits.For example, I eat a lot of sugar, so maybe I should eat less sugar this year.Or maybe, I should eat more vegetables.These are good resolutions.There are many different new year's resolutions.I think this is good, because people want to accomplish goals.It's good to accomplish goals.Okay, that's all for today.Leave a comment and tell me if you have a resolution for this year.

  • A1 English Listening Practice - Pets 22.04.2026 4dk
    Hey everybody, welcome to this A1 English Listening Practice video!You can use this video to practice your listening and comprehension as I speak.You ready?So today, I'm going to talk about pets.This is a fun topic, because many people have pets and like animals.Let's start with dogs, since dogs are the most common pets.In the U.S., so many people have dogs.You can see and hear dogs everywhere.When I was younger, my family had many dogs.Some of them were big, and some of them were small.They were all different kinds of dogs.I always liked our big dogs more.They were smart and fun.Our small dogs were cute, but they weren't very smart.All of our dogs loved to play.They wanted to play all day.I like dogs, but now, I don't want to have dogs.If you have dogs, you need to spend a lot of time with them.They need a lot of attention.In the U.S., people treat their dogs very well.They give them a lot of attention, and they play with them a lot.Okay, now let's talk about cats.Some people like cats more than dogs, but I don't.I don't like cats at all.Actually, I'm allergic to cats, so I stay away from them.Many people like cats because they're independent.They don't need a lot of attention like dogs do.So, if you have a cat, it's easy.Also, cats are funny animals.There are many videos of cats doing very funny things.My family never had cats, though.What about you? Do you prefer cats or dogs?Okay, now let's talk about other types of pets.In the U.S., some people like to have small pets, like hamsters or guinea pigs.These animals live in cages, so they're easy pets to have.You just need to feed them and clean their cage.I don't think these pets are very fun.They're a little boring in my opinion.But, many people prefer these types of pets.I've never had a hamster or guinea pig before, but I ate a guinea pig when I was in Peru.In some countries, guinea pigs are food, not pets.Other types of pets include birds, bunny rabbits, fish, and reptiles.I had three fish when I was younger.Two of these fish died pretty fast, but one of the fish lived for several years.Fish are boring pets, though.When I was very young, my family had a gecko.I liked to watch this gecko eat.It ate live crickets and worms.That was a cool pet.In the U.S., there are many animal shelters.An animal shelter is a place that takes care of animals that don't have owners.Most of these animals are dogs of course.If you go to an animal shelter, you can adopt these animals if you want.My family adopted several dogs from these animal shelters.Some of these dogs were nice and fun, and some of these dogs were not very nice.My favorite pet was our first dog.She was very smart, and she was beautiful.I played with her and I pet her every day.She lived with us for over 10 years.I miss that dog.If I get a pet in the future, it will be a dog.But, I don't think I want a pet.Okay, that's all for today.Leave a comment and tell me if you have any pets. I'll see you next time!
  • A1 English Listening Practice - Weather 22.04.2026 5dk
    Hey everybody, welcome to this A1 English Listening Practice video!You can use this video to train your listening and comprehension as I speak.You ready?So today, I'm going to talk about the weather.This is an important topic, because everybody talks about the weather.If you are learning English you need to know how to talk about the weather.So, let's start with sunny weather.Sunny weather is my favorite type of weather.When it's sunny outside, I'm happy.For me, hot weather is better than cold weather.Some people don't like the heat, but I don't mind the heat.It can be uncomfortable, but for me, that's okay.Some places are too hot, though.For example, the city of Las Vegas is really hot in the summer.I like the hot weather, but not that hot.In really hot cities, you need to stay inside during the afternoon.In the U.S., most buildings in hot cities have air conditioning.Okay, now let's talk about cloudy days.I hate cloudy days.When the sun is not shining, I feel a little sad, because I love sunny days.But, cloudy days are normal.Every city has cloudy days.Some cities are always cloudy, like London.I can't live in a cloudy city; I need sunshine.Do you like sunny or cloudy days more?Okay, now let's talk about rainy days.For me, rainy days are the worst.I love being outside, so this is why I don't like the rain.When it rains, I can't do anything outside.I have to stay indoors all day.Some people really like the rain.My wife likes the rain, but only when she's inside.She says that the sound of the rain is calming. I don't agree.I don't like the sound of the rain.It reminds me that I can't go outside.Of course, you can go outside when it's raining, but you need to take an umbrella.If you don't have an umbrella, you get wet.Sometimes, it starts raining when I'm not home and I don't have an umbrella with me.This is the worst.I don't like getting wet.Also, when it rains, it can be dangerous to drive.Many people have car accidents when it rains.When the streets are wet, you need to drive slower.If you don't, you can have an accident.On rainy days, there are a lot of car accidents.I don't like driving in the rain.Alright, now let's talk about windy days.Some cities have a lot of wind, and this can be good or bad.If you live in a hot city, the wind can be good because it cools the city down.But, if you live in a cold city, the wind can be bad because it makes it even colder.If the wind is really strong, it can cause problems.Sometimes, trees fall down because of the strong wind.Usually, I prefer days that aren't windy.Okay, lastly, let's talk about the snow.It doesn't snow in my city, so I don't see the snow often.Some years, my family goes to the mountains in the winter to ski and snowboard.I like the snow, but I don't want to live in a snowy city.It's too cold, and life is more difficult in the snow.I have some students that live in really cold cities.During the winter, the temperature can be -20 or -30 degrees Celsius.For me, that's crazy. I don't like the cold.Another bad type of weather is stormy weather.In the U.S., we have some bad storms, like hurricanes and tornadoes.I've never seen a storm like this before, but I've seen many thunderstorms.These storms are not that bad, but I don't like lightning.Lightning can be scary.Okay, that's all for today.Leave a comment and tell me what type of weather you prefer.I'll see you next video!
  • A1 English Listening Practice - Cooking 22.04.2026 5dk
    Hey everybody, welcome to this A1 English Listening Practice video!You can use this video to train your listening and comprehension as I speak.You ready?So today, I'm going to talk about cooking.I do not know how to cook, so I do not know a lot about this topic.However, I like eating, so I like talking about food in general.I am lucky, because my wife cooks very well.She has a natural talent for cooking, so she cooks well.That means that I eat well.Let me tell you about some of the things that my wife cooks.Since she is Mexican, she likes cooking Mexican food.Sometimes, she makes tacos, which are delicious.There are many types of tacos, so my wife can cook different tacos each time.I also cooked tacos in the past, but I don't cook well, so my tacos weren't very good.I cooked "tacos de lengua", tongue tacos, but I didn't cook them very well.My wife cooks much better.The only thing that I cook well is eggs.I love eggs and I eat them almost every morning.I think eggs are the best breakfast food.I usually eat scrambled eggs, but I also eat other types of eggs too.My favorite type is eggs Benedict. Mmm, this is my favorite breakfast.Have you tried eggs Benedict?So, my wife also makes pasta.She makes really good pasta.She doesn't buy the pasta in the box that you buy from the store.She makes the pasta by hand.She makes the noodles, and they taste so good!When you make pasta by hand, it tastes better.I love all types of pasta, but my favorite is ravioli.For me, ravioli is the perfect food.Actually, I like all Italian food.When we were in Italy, we ate some amazing food.My wife also cooks a lot of meat.We like eating different cuts of steak every week.We try to buy cheap meat, because meat can be expensive.We don't want to spend a lot of money, so we buy cheap meat.My wife cooks the meat in a pan, which is easy.Other people cook their meat on a grill.We don't have a grill, so we use a pan.I think that meat tastes good if it's cooked on a pan or on a grill.Meat is always good.I hope my wife cooks meat tonight.She also cooks really good breakfast.She makes really good pancakes.I like to eat pancakes with maple syrup and peanut butter.I know that's a little strange, but it's delicious!I love pancakes and peanut butter.My wife also cooks chilaquiles, a common Mexican breakfast.This is my favorite breakfast in the world.I love chilaquiles.This dish has tortilla chips, salsa, cheese, and cream.I like it with eggs on top. It's so good.I don't know which is better: breakfast or dinner?In my family, we cook dinner 5 days a week.The other days, we go out to eat dinner, or we eat dinner with other people.Sometimes, we eat dinner with my parents, and other times, we eat dinner with my sister.Tonight, we will eat dinner with my parents and my mother will cook dinner.When I was a kid, my mother cooked dinner every weekday.Every evening, we ate dinner at 6:30pm - every day!Do you eat dinner at the same time every day?In the U.S., it's common for families to eat dinner together.We sit together at the table, we eat, and we talk about our day.Dinner time is important in the U.S.In other countries, people eat dinner late, like at 8pm or 9pm.But this is too late for me.I don't want to eat dinner late.I like eating dinner at 5, 6, or 7pm.This is a good time for dinner.What do you like eating for dinner?I like every type of food, from every country.I can eat anything, and I love trying new foods.Like I said, I don't cook well, but I eat well.Maybe I will learn to cook in the future, but I don't know.I don't like cooking, and I don't have the natural talent to cook.I prefer eating, not cooking.My wife cooks very well, so I don't need to learn.I'm thankful for that.Okay, we are finished for today.Leave a comment and tell me if you like cooking.I'll see you next video!
