1. Free Time and Hobbies Vocabulary

What words or phrases for free time activities do you know in English?

Some people like things you can do at home, like:

Other people like sports, such as:

Playing football/tennis/basketball

Going swimming/jogging/climbing

Doing boxing/judo/yoga

Of course, many people enjoy more social activities. For example:

Or maybe you prefer to do something more creative, like:

What about you? What kind of free time activities do you prefer?

Let's see how you can talk about activities you like.

2. What Do You Like Doing?

What could you say here?

Can you see a pattern? In every sentence, we use a verb + -ing after like.

Can you make a sentence? What do you like doing in your free time?

But, just using like can be repetitive. What else can you use?

You can use other verbs like love, enjoy, or hate.

Can you see the same pattern? After all of these verbs, you need to use a verb with -ing.

You can also add words like really, sometimes or absolutely to make your meaning stronger or weaker. For example:

Now it's your turn. What can you say?

OK, so now you can say something about what you like or don't like doing. Let's see how you can add more details to your idea.

3. Adding Details: How Often Do You...?

First, let's say how often you do your hobby or free time activity. For example:

What about you? Can you say how often you do your hobbies? You can use these phrases to help you:

...every _________ -> For example: every weekend; every Saturday afternoon; every day.

...once/twice a _________ -> For example: once a week, twice a month, three times a year.

Can you make some sentences like this about your free time and hobbies?

4. Adding Details: Where Do You...?

Next, let's add some details about where you do your hobby or free time activity. For example:

You can see that our answers are getting more detailed. Whenever you speak, you should try to add details to your ideas like this. It will make your English sound more natural and more interesting.

What about you? Can you add some details like these to your ideas? Pause the video and make some sentences to practise.

5. Giving Background to Your Hobbies

If you have an interesting hobby, you could say more about when and why you started doing it.

I started playing tennis when I was ten.

I've been learning to paint for six months now.

I decided to do yoga because I wanted to get healthy.

My friend got me into climbing.

In the last sentence, my friend got me into... means that your friend introduced an activity to you, and now you like it.

What can you say about your hobby? Can you use some of these phrases to talk about yourself?

I started ________ when I was ________.

I've been ________ for ________.

I decided to ________ because I wanted to ________.

________ got me into ________.

6. Describing Your Hobbies

Finally, let's look at how you can add some descriptive words to say why you do or don't enjoy something. For example:

You can also use negative adjectives to talk about things you don't like. For example:

Why do you like your hobbies? What do you dislike doing in your free time, and why? Try to find some adjectives to describe your hobbies.

7. Your Turn to Speak!

Now, let's try using everything we've learned to make a longer answer.

For example:
I really like playing tennis. I play every weekend at the park near my house. Sometimes I play with my brother, or sometimes with a friend. My brother got me into it, because he loves sports and he needed someone to play with. I didn't like it at first, because it was hard and I lost all the time, but now I enjoy it, especially when I beat my brother!
Let's look at one more sample answer:
I love taking photos. Once or twice a month, I go to different areas of the city and look for interesting pictures to take. I've been interested in photography since I was young, when my dad got me a camera for my birthday. I like it because it's creative and I can express myself through my pictures. Anyone can use a camera, but you need to use your imagination to find good pictures.
Now, can you talk about your free time?

What do you like?

Where do you go, and how often?

When and why did you start doing your hobby?

Why do you like it?

Try to talk for at least 30 seconds, and give lots of details!

We hope you enjoyed this lesson from Oxford Online English! Are you preparing for an upcoming speaking exam? Continue practicing with our other spoken English lessons.

Learning words that rhyme can be a fun and engaging way to improve your vocabulary, language skills, and phonological awareness. Rhyming words share similar sounds at the end of the word, which can help with pronunciation and creative writing. Here are some examples of words that rhyme:

Remember that these are just a few examples, and there are countless rhyming words in the English language. You can explore rhyming dictionaries or engage in activities like reading poetry, singing songs, or playing word games to expand your repertoire of rhyming words.

In the game Words that Rhyme, young learners are introduced to the concept of rhyming and learn to build sounds and word relationships. Specifically, the children will be looking for end rhymes, with three pairs of rhyming words on each screen. Rhyming is an important skill to master, as it sharpens auditory awareness and heightens a child's ability to play with words and use them with more precision.
Once you click through the OK button to begin playing the game, it takes you through the brief instructions, which encourages you to look for three pairs of rhyming words on each page. Pictures show up on the screen with words at the bottom of each like digital flashcards. If the child does not know the word, they simply press the auditory button on the left of each word and it will be read aloud to them. Locate two rhyming words on the screen, and click once on each to pair them up as a correct rhyme.
Once you click a correct pair, the narrator will announce that A rhymes with B, and whisk the cards away. Incorrect matches get a slightly harsh sound and a "This is incorrect." statement. A timer does continuously tick up as you play, bringing more and more screens of matching rhyming words. The words begin simply, with only three letter simple words being used, but it quickly amps up with each subsequent screen if they are able to handle it. Learning rhyming skills is an essential skill to have and can be practiced here while employing other senses along with it.
