Say Yes to Maximising your English Learning

An ever-growing number of people today around the world are realizing that they need and want to learn English. But almost everyone is unsure they have enough time to do it. Recent research, however, has proven that we all have more than enough time to study and do much much more! Are you ready to say yes to maximising your time?

In January 2019, Sapio Research conducted a survey for Wall Street English in eight countries around the world, interviewing 8,080 people about the amount of free time they have and how they use it.

The results revealed that, though people clearly work very hard, on average they still have four hours free on workdays. Moreover, they have eight hours free on their day off. In total, most people have 38 hours of free time a week.

How do people spend their free time?

So what do people usually do with all this free time? Two thirds of the people interviewed said they believe they waste most of their free time. The top four reasons people gave were:

• hanging out with people they don’t like (44%)
• playing video and mobile phone games (42%)
• watching TV (42%)
• using the phone (40%)

Nine out of ten people interviewed felt they could make better use of their free time. 

When asked how they would like to make better use of their free time, three quarters of the people interviewed said they would like to use their free time to learn something new, and 57% of these people want to specifically learn English.

How can you maximize your free time to learn English?
