Actually, I always watch Netflix series in English, but my mother just thought "what's Netflix doing for us?"
So I thought of YouTube because you can also watch English videos there. Do you know good and easy English channels? I often watch videos of "Danny Casale", he does some sort of entertainment animation short videos. Rarely, I also look briefly PewDiePie.
But the videos of Danny Casale would be a good example of what the videos should be like:
The easiest to understand, not too long and (if possible) funny.
If I were a teacher, I would say "What does Youtube bring us?
Padding any animations will increase your language skills by 0.00%
Why does not that bring anything? It is also in English?
Do you have other tips?
Children's short film series might help. Here I call two in this regard:
King roller blind
He appeared on TV in the 80s. Of course I have seen in German and then sometime then bought the English DVD for nostalgic reasons. King Rollo is actually still a child and lives in a normal house together with magician and cook and a cat. Mostly it is about typical problems of childhood. As a friend, he has Queen Gwen, who lives next door. The English language is relatively easy to understand and offers, perhaps in combination with the fading in of English subtitles, an interesting teaching method. You can also portion the whole thing very well, since the episodes of the 13-part series each run for 5 minutes. Here's something to see:
Paddington Bear
Lief also in the early 80s on television. This is a mix of stop-motion and character-trick series. Main character Paddington is a stop-motion doll, the other figures drawn in 2D, the backdrops drawn in 3D. Paddington is from Peru and embarked as a stowaway on the way to London, England. There he is staying with a family who takes care of him. He still has to learn the city life and the customs and behavior of the people and falls from one strange situation to the other. The narrator, Paddington and the other characters are all easy to understand in the original English version and can be dosed the whole, much like King Rollo in five-minute episodes. Here is a movie to see:
I'm a teacher and I say: Youtube is great. Language learning is allowed, which is fun. The fear that in such movies bad or wrong English is spoken is usually unjustified. A sense of language develops to a large extent through language examples and these are better the more authentic they are.
The channel "Wanted Adventure" by Dana Newman is really good
