Welcome to English as a Second Language Podcast number 11: Getting Ready for Bed and Going to Sleep

This is English as a Second Language Podcast episode number eleven. I’m your host, Dr. Jeff McQuillan, coming to you from the Center for Educational Development in beautiful Los Angeles, California.

In this episode, the last of our 10-part special series on daily English, I’ll talk about getting ready for bed and going to sleep.

Let’s get started!

I go into the bathroom and turn on the tap. I wash my face, and dry it with my towel. I floss and brush my teeth. I have to admit that by this time, I’m beat, and so is my wife. She cleans up when I’ve finished up.

In the meantime, I walk into the bedroom and get undressed. I put my dirty clothes in the hamper and I put on my pajamas. Wearing my slippers, I go into the kitchen to get a glass of water to put next to the bed
