ESOL Level 2 Students Write About Daily Schedules
My wife’s name is Yi Zhang. She is 47 years old. She is a bit short and a bit overweight. She doesn't work because she takes care of our two children. In her free time, she enjoys listening to Peking opera. Currently, she is taking Enrolled Agent lessons, and hopes to become an outstanding Enrolled Agent in the future. From Monday to Friday, she wakes up around 7:00 am, and she has breakfast at 7:30 am. Then she takes our younger son to school at 7:45 am and returns home at 8:00 am. Then she starts taking Enrolled Agent lessons. We have been married for 15 years, and I love her very much!

I have a not so difficult schedule. I work from Monday to Friday. I always get up at 6:30 am. When I work, I work from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm. I love my job because it is easy and interesting. When I get home all I do is rest, watch TV and talk with my son about how his day was. Saturday and Sunday in the hot weather we visit the rivers, lakes and go hiking.
