We're so done with New Year, New You.
This year, it's more you on Bumble.
More of you shamelessly sending playlists, especially that one filled with showtunes.
More of you finding Geminis because you know you always like them.
More of you dating with intention because you know what you want.
And you know what? We love that for you.
Someone else will too.
Be more you this year and find them on Bumble.
Hello, hello, dear listener, and welcome into our super speaking part three about time saving.
Rory here is a super expert on managing his time and being organized.
So, Rory is super organized about being organized.
Okay? Ben 9, 10, 15.
I totally try my best.
What can schools do to help students learn time management?
Well, where I'm from, schools make extensive use of things like visual timetables for young children.
And I think they give older students planners for them to write their schedules in.
That's quite handy since they can see examples and experiment with their own ways to plan their time.
Is it necessary for children to learn time management?
It's probably a good thing for everyone to know for things like work and studies.
But it wouldn't be the most important thing or be about managing your time according to someone in at least according to someone else's vision um it's important to see how it can improve life in some circumstances but not all do people who can manage time well become successful more easily uh well surely
that depends on what sort of success we're on about here if it's productivity then managing time well can allow you to get more done uh but people are not just producing machines they have lives outside of that so if people only focus on the productivity side of things and neglects relationships, they
might be less successful in that area.
And overall, probably.
Do you think parents should be responsible for teaching children to save time?
That's certainly an important set of people to have involved in the process, since parents are the ones who ideally spend the most time with children.
I don't see why others can't be involved, though, especially if it means involving other members of the family and them helping each other out.
Then they can learn how to do that at the same time.
Does technology help people save time?
It certainly can, though it can also be a drain on time, energy and resources too.
You can use the calendar app to organize your day efficiently, but if you lose access to it, then you could have serious issues trying to recall everything that you have on.
Technology is more of a force multiplier than anything intrinsically good or bad what can people do to save time I mean surely that depends on the situation again generally they can avoid less efficient ways of doing things so instead of going to the shops five times a day for five different things
they can all they can go to all of them at one time and in some sort of route if possible to make it more efficient your data is like gold to hackers they're selling your passwords bank details and private messages McAfee helps stop them secure vpn keeps your online activity private ai -powered text

See you soon. Hey, thank you, Rory, for your story.
No worries, till we talk about the grammar and vocabulary.
So, dear listener, if Rory is Band 9 organized, Maria, me, is Band 1 organized.
Do you think so? Absolutely.
No. Yeah. I don't agree.
My life is a mess. I'm the definition of chaos and mess, Rory.
No, no. Don't believe it.
So time management.
We manage our time.
And this is called time management.
Students can use visual timetables.
When you put a timetable on the wall, it's visual.
So young children understand what's going on.
It's fun. Older students can use planners.
Like Rory told us about his diary planner his super notebook so they can use planners to write their schedules or schedules that's quite handy handy meaning useful and they can experiment with their own ways to plan their time visually or not visually using different technology apps if the examiner
asks you questions about children you can say that actually is good for everybody mmm it is yeah well at least I think so time management is about productivity so when we manage our time well we can get more productive and get things done but if you get things done that just means that you do them but if we
only focus on the productivity, then people can neglect the other things like relationships.
But if you neglect something, it just means you don't look after it properly.
Parents can help out their children with time management, which means that they help them, they assist or they lend a hand, which means like help their children.
It's funny if parents are absolutely disorganized and they teach their children how to be organized.
Technology helps us save time or waste time.
And Rory tells us that technology can be a drain on time.
So it kind of takes our time away from us.
It drains our time, energy and resources.
like a vacuum cleaner sucks up all your energy and time and health when you do all this dumb scrolling what's it called doom it's dumb as well stupid doom scrolling doom scrolling like addiction to video games and doom scrolling i suffer from doom scrolling oh poor you you know oh yeah here are some
pills you know i do too much doom scrolling sniff this powder sniff this white powder we can use a calendar app to organize our day efficiently you know when you are efficient you do everything effectively but if you lose access to this app or you don't have the internet that's it your life is over
because you have to recall you're doomed everything you have planned and you know our memory these days you can't remember anything so technology is more of a force multiplier right what do you mean a force multiplier or what was this a force multiplier is just a tool that helps people do things more
effectively so for example a gun is a force multiplier because you can well kill a lot more people with a gun than without um or the internet is a force multiplier because you don't have to research loads and loads of different sources in different places they're all there and um force multiplier is from physics
dear listener it's a specialized term a force multiplier something that increases the effect of a force so if you want to sound like an educated native speaker you say technology is more of a force multiplier and what a stupid question what can people do to save time oh and kind of and worry gives a stupid
answer well it depends on the situation okay Okay, and then kind of like generally, we can avoid less efficient ways of doing something.
Yeah, for example, when you write an IELTS essay and you scroll through your Instagram feed, or you watch some series and write an IELTS essay, no, no, no, it's not an efficient way of writing an essay.
and rory gives an example for example instead of going to the shop five times a day you can go once so kind of you create a list of things you need and then you go once yeah yeah ideally but usually you kind of you have a list and then you forgot something and then new friends arrive and a new shopping
list pops up. Ah, life happens.
Never a dull moment.
Oh, yeah. Thank you very much for listening, and we'll get back to you in our next episode.

It's important to see how it can improve life in some circumstances, but not all.
Do people who can manage time well become successful more easily?
Well, surely that depends on what sort of success we're on about here.
If it's productivity, then managing time well can allow you to get more done.
But people are not just producing machines, they have lives outside of that.
So if people only focus on the productivity side of things and neglect relationships, they might be less successful in that area.

Yeah. Yeah.
