Telling the Time in English

A simple ESL video about telling the time in English. We have a clock which shows a time and we ask the question “What is the time?“ It is without the answer for a moment to give students time to try and answer themselves. After around 5 seconds the time appears as numbers and as words (e.g. 2:10 - It’s ten past two) next to the clock. The following time intervals (vocabulary) appear: five past, ten past, quarter past, twenty past, twenty-five past, half past, twenty-five to, twenty to, quarter to, ten to , five to and o’clock. At the end of the video there is a SUMMARY CHART of these time intervals and they are repeated (orally/pronunciation) again. The main idea of this video is to learn the expression “What is the time?“ and to see the difference between PAST and TO when telling the time.
