👨👩👧👦 A2 Listening — My family
3 short monologues. Focus: family members, routines, and relationships.
Hi, I’m Elena. I have a small but close family. I live with my husband and our little son. My parents live in the same city, so we see them often, usually on weekends. My mum is very warm and talkative, and she always cooks a big meal when we visit. My dad is quieter, but he likes helping around the house and fixing small things.
During the week, life is busy. My husband works long hours, so I do most of the everyday tasks, like cooking and shopping. Our son goes to kindergarten, and he is very active. In the evening, we try to have a calm routine. We eat dinner together, then we read a short story to our son before he goes to bed.
I also have one older sister. She lives in another city, so we don’t meet often, but we call each other and send voice messages. I feel lucky because my family supports me. When I have a problem, I can talk to them, and they always try to help.
Hello, I’m Kevin. My family is quite big. I have two brothers and one sister, so our house was never quiet when we were kids. Now we are adults, and we don’t live together, but we still stay in contact. We have a family group chat, and we share photos and news.
I live with my wife. We don’t have children yet, but we want to have a baby in the future. My wife is very organized, and she likes planning everything. I’m more relaxed, so sometimes we are different, but we work well as a team. We usually spend Sunday morning together, making breakfast and cleaning the apartment.
My parents live in the countryside. They have a small house and a garden. When I visit them, we eat fresh food, drink tea, and talk a lot. My dad enjoys gardening, and my mum loves baking. I feel calm when I’m there. Even though we are all busy, family time is important for me.
Hi, I’m Sofia. I live with my mother, and we are very close. My father lives in another country, so I don’t see him often, but we talk online. Sometimes it is hard, because I miss him, especially on holidays. But he tries to be part of my life. He asks about my work and my plans, and he always says he is proud of me.
My mother is my best friend. She works as a teacher, and she is very patient. At home, she likes quiet evenings, good music, and a cup of tea. I am more active, so I sometimes invite friends over, but I always ask her first. We respect each other’s space.
I also have a grandmother who lives nearby. She is older now, so I help her with shopping and small chores. She tells me stories about her life, and I love listening to her. In my family, we don’t have everything perfect, but we care about each other. That is what matters most to me.
