hey Naturals I have a question for you have you ever thought about how some people seem to stay stuck at the same level in English forever I don't know maybe you feel this way and other people seem to learn easily quickly so naturally they speak confidently well I've noticed a pattern and my students who learn more quickly they are going outside of pres finding materials like movies that they enjoy and using those to their advantage strategically using movies that they enjoy to improve their fluency their listening skills vocabulary even their speaking skills because of course
you can follow along and you can you can Shadow you can speak along with the movie and not only does it improve their language skills but movies improve their cultural understanding so they're able to understand jokes kind of Insider cultural jokes that others just don't understand if they haven't seen these movies and don't know the cultural context so in this video I'm going to share five of my favorite American movies that will help you improve your fluency in the English language so I think they'll be not only fun and enjoyable but they'll also help help
you reach your language learning goals and I want to share a really cool app that I've found called lingo that helps us to learn languages through movies I absolutely love the app I love the concept because this is something that I've done forever you know watching movies in the languages that I'm learning but sometimes the movies can feel overwhelming it's a lot to watch in English or in the language that you're learning for 2 hours so lingo Pai helps break it down and I'm going to show you exactly how it works just keep watching until
the end so you can see how this can really benefit your English fluency when I was learning Spanish I was lucky enough to spend a semester abroad in a Spanish-speaking country but when I got back home I was struggling with keeping my Spanish up and I felt really stuck so one way that I immersed myself in the Spanish language was to watch movies in Spanish and this is a way that you can keep your English up and keep improving it now without further Ado I'd like to share my top five movies my recommendations for you
