Host: At exam time it is important to sleep well. Today we have Doctor Baker with us in the studio and he is going to give us five top tips for getting a good night’s sleep. Welcome to the show, Doctor Baker.
Dr Baker: Thank you. It’s great to be here. Let’s start with tip one. Don’t go to bed with the television on. Some people think they can sleep well with the TV on, but the noise and lights mean you don’t really sleep well, so turn it off!
Tip two: Don’t think too much before bedtime. Do your hardest homework earlier in the evening. Do easier homework later. If your brain is too busy and full of ideas it takes longer to get to sleep.
Tip three: Don’t play video games for an hour before you go to sleep. They also make your brain too busy and active.
Tip four: Turn off your cell phone when you go to bed. What is so important that it can’t wait until the morning? If possible, leave your phone in another room.
Tip five: Play music if you like. But don’t play it too loud. Turn the sound down low.
Host: Thank you, Doctor. That is very useful advice for our young listeners.

Ha-ha-ha!
It's too much for me!! Nine hours?/ I guess 5-6 hrs sleep make me really fresh!
yes i sleep well, but if it is the exams times, i still asleep, i don't sleep well because i think too much about my exams. but after my exams, ican sleep 8 or 10 hours per day.
Mostly, I sleep well, but sometimes it is not good. I usually sleep about 7-8 hours per day
sometimes i sleep well when i have homework
Yes, I always sleep well. Happily I don’t ever have imsomnia. But if I have a stressful event next day, for instance, an exam , I’ll go asleep problematically and will sleep restless.
I prefer sleeping less than 7 hours. If I sleep more, I’ll have a pain in my neck.
i often sleep 9 hours a night.
i don't sleep well because of my busy routine. i sleep 4 to 6 hours daily.
Hi Coordinators Joanna and Tina,
I'm really excited I've found this site, my final goal is to become an advanced english speaker, to accomplish my goal I've been learning English really hard, I belive that I'll achieve my goal very soon, once I reach my goal I plan to become an English teacher, It may sounds crazy for someone but I truly try.. Thank you britishcouncil for this site and friends and coordinators.
Hi Nibras,
Thanks a lot for your comment. We're glad that you've found our site too. Good luck with your plans to become an English teacher! :)
Best wishes, Jo (LearnEnglish Teens Team)
Hello. Sometimes, I can sleep because I have a exam or I'm worried about something. I sleep normaly about 9 or 10 hours
Hi every body.
I'm new here. How can I develop my skills in listening and speaking?
Hi Molham, and welcome to LearnEnglish Teens! Here in the listening skills section, you're in the right place to practise and improve listening. The more you listen, the better you will get, and you'll learn lots of useful new language too. If this page was easy for you, try level A2 or B1.
Now ... exciting news! We're working on a new speaking skills section! It's not ready yet, but look out for it later this year. Best wishes, Joanna (LearnEnglish Teens)
Wow..., I thought you're working on a new sleeping skills section!!
Anyway, looking forward to it.

Keep up the good work!
