Hello, my friends.
Welcome back to English Unleashed.
I'm Tom.
In this episode, I will only use future tenses.
Yeah, that's right.
I will only speak about the future.
I will tell you my future plans in different areas of my life.
My work, my travel, my health, my hobbies and my big dreams.
The goal of today's lesson is simple.
I want you to hear and feel how future tense works in real, natural English.
I want you to understand how native speakers talk about what will happen, what they plan to do and what they hope to achieve.
While you listen, you can just relax, or if you want to improve even faster, you can shadow me.
Repeat my words as I say them.
Shadowing helps your brain think in English and helps your mouth move naturally.
All right, are you ready?
Let's start talking about the future.
Okay, I will start with one of the most important parts of my life.
My work.
In the future, my work will change a lot and I'm very excited about it.
Right now, I'm an English teacher and a podcast host.
But in the next few years, I will grow my online school and turn it into something much bigger.
I will create a place where people from all around the world can learn English together.
It will be a friendly and motivating space.
It will be full of lessons.
It will be full of practice activities and real conversations.
Next year, I'm going to start a new online platform.
It will offer short daily lessons video classes and live conversations.
By the end of the year, I will have created over 200 lessons and I will have helped thousands of learners.
I will also start a new podcast series for beginners.
It will focus on daily English conversations and I will speak slowly and clearly so everyone can understand.
Every episode will include practical expressions, small dialogues and easy exercises.
Another plan is to publish a book.
I am going to write a guide about how to learn English with small habits.
I will teach learners how to build daily routines.
I will teach them how to practice speaking every day.
And I will teach them how to stay motivated.
I will finish the first draft by next summer.
And I will publish it before the end of the year.
In the future, I will also work with more teachers.
Together, we will create courses on vocabulary, pronunciation, writing, and listening.
Okay, now let's talk about travel.
I love traveling, and I will visit many new places in the future.
There is so much of the world I haven't seen yet and I will make sure I explore as much as possible.
Next summer, I'm going to visit Japan.
I will stay there for about one month.
I will explore Tokyo.
I will try delicious Japanese food.

I will also visit some peaceful temples and will spend a few days in the countryside.

Every year I will try to visit at least two new countries.
I will take long walks in old cities.

And it will make my life more interesting and colorful.

I will train step by step.
I will be ready for the race in about two years.
By that time, I will have built strong habits and will feel more confident about my body and mind.
Alright my friends, let's have a quick review before we move on.
So far, we have talked about a lot of future plans.
Will is used for decisions, promises, and predictions.
For example, I will travel to Japan.
I will run a marathon.
Going to is used for planned actions and intentions.
I am going to start a business.
I am going to buy a guitar.
Also, present continuous is used for future arrangements, future plans.
For example, I am meeting my team next week.
This means the meeting has already been arranged.
I am traveling to Japan next summer.
Again, this means your trip to Japan has already been arranged.
Now, we use future perfect for things that will be finished by a certain time.
For example, by 2035, I will have taught 1 million students.
I will have taught 1 million students.
Or, by the end of the year, I will have read 12 books.
Okay, now I want to talk about my hobbies and the things I will learn for fun.
Life will be more beautiful when we learn new skills and do things we love.
One of my biggest plans is to learn how to play the guitar.
I'm going to buy a guitar next month.
I will practice 20 minutes every day.
At first I will learn basic chords and simple songs.
Then I will try more difficult pieces.
By the end of the year I will be able to play several songs.
I will also learn how to cook new types of food.
Every month I will try a new cuisine.
Italian, Mexican, Indian, Thai.
I will follow recipes.
I will experiment.
I will invite my friends to dinner.
Cooking will become one of my favorite hobbies.
Another plan is to read more books.
I will read at least one book every month.
Some books will teach me about science.
Others will take me to imaginary worlds.
By the end of the year, I will have read at least 12 books and I will have learned a lot from them.
I will also spend more time on creative activities.
I'm going to start painting again.

Alright, finally, let's talk about my big dreams.
The things I will work towards for many years.
One of my biggest dreams is to create a language learning company that will help millions of people speak English confidently.
It will offer online courses, podcasts, books, and events.
I am going to write a book about language learning and motivation.

Think about your future.
Use these forms to speak about your life.
For example, next year I will move to a new city.
I am going to learn a new language.
Or, by 2030 I will have visited 10 countries.
Speak your sentences out loud.
Repeat them again and again.
The more you speak about your future, the easier it will become to use future tenses naturally.
Listen to this podcast again and repeat after me.
Thank you so much for listening today.
I hope this episode has helped you understand how to talk about your future plans in English.
Remember, the future is not just something that happens.
It's something you create.
Every plan, every idea, every dream starts with words, okay?
And now you have the words you need to speak about yours.
Until next time, keep practicing, keep shadowing, and keep dreaming.
I will be here with you in the next episode of English Unleashed, and I promise the future will bring many more lessons, stories and conversations.
Until then, take care.
