Writing About Your Hobbies

Use like/love + -ing and adverbs of frequency.

Examples

Key rules

  • Use like, love or enjoy with -ing: I love playing football
  • Use adverbs of frequency such as often and always before the main verb
  • Give one specific detail about when or how you do the hobby

Common mistakes

  • I like play football → I like playing football
  • I play often football → I often play football

Use cases

  • Introducing your interests
  • Writing for a club profile
  • Answering a question about free time
💡 Tip: Add a reason for your hobby, such as because it helps me relax, to make the writing sound more natural.
