My name is John and I come from England. I am 35 years old and I live in London. London is a very big city.

I work as a teacher. I work at a primary School, and I teach small children. I often walk to work. I love my job as I like children.

I get up at seven o'clock on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, but at the weekend I can sleep late as I don't have to go to work. I like to meet my friends and we go to play football or go for a swim.

Now listen to the slower version and type what you hear into the text box.
