YouTube

YouTube is an invaluable site full of resources that can be used in our ESL classes such as clips from Disney movies, from American and British tv shows or songs and educational videos.

For example:

From Full House (aka "Padres forzosos" in Spain) we have the best quotes from Michelle Tanner:


It is a wonderful way for our students to get in touch with the real accent and to see the importance of English in areas like TV or cinema.

  1. It´s really interesting activity to work the pronunciation, idioms... If we can get the series they usually watch on TV, we could use them in order to work speaking and listening skills firstly and if we prepare activities about it writing and reading too.
    Nice idea!!!

  4. My opinion is similar to the previous. I agree that youtube is a website we find interesting videos for the learning language. The accent is very difficult for some persons and this recourse can help to improve.
