Laziness…We’ve got to fix it, but how? – English Listening Video Lesson

Watch this English Listening Video of me fussing about one of the United States’ social problem. It’s an issue of being too lazy and spoiled.

Remember to turn on the subtitles and read along the first time you watch the video. Then rewatch the lesson without the subtitles just focusing on the highlighted vocabulary. Finally, watch the video one last time for comprehension. Just watch the video. Don’t try to understand. Just relax and watch it as if it were in your native language. You’ll be surprised at how much you understand!
