Series to learn or improve English?

I'm looking for series on Amazon Prime or Netflix with which you can learn or improve English. My level is B2, if that helps.

Funny that you still have to learn English these days, you learn that automatically. Not in school or through series, but it doesn't work that well either, I recommend that you put English music and games in English.

im

Actually every series works, but you should watch it with German subtitles.

It can help you grammatically and you will hear words being pronounced.

Aha so only through music and games in English do you understand the language?

Sry, but nothing works without a foundation.

No

Let me put it this way, without grammar (tenses) + that you have no vocabulary at all, you will perhaps master the language perfectly in 20 years. Not all vocabulary and tenses appear in Musik + Spiele + You would have to look up the vocabulary after every sentence and you do not know why the sentence structure is different.

You have to consider a "native speaker" has been learning a language since he was born + even more intensively in his school career, if you want to speak something like that, you have to do a lot.

Each series is mainly with subtitles, but you can also listen to music that makes sense or read books

Nice that you want to work on your english. But I'm afraid that passive sprinkling (watching films) alone will not be enough, you have to be active yourself in order to learn or improve your English.

Therefore other learning methods are also important + correct, like

- Travel to English-speaking countries, if possible alone, otherwise you will be happy to send someone in front of you

- learn vocabulary efficiently - d. H. So that one

being able to call them up + apply them - means learning them regularly in small portions + not only stubbornly learning by heart, but also word families + example sentences, using prepositions, grammar. Specifics etc. To be learned

- Learn vocabulary with all your senses (see, hear, smell, taste, feel / touch)

+ preferably also speak, sing, rap, rhythmically, in verse + do gymnastics (typical hand movement)

• You can also use sticky notes m. The respective English word on all objects, household appliances, etc.

o. Stick other vocabulary into the whole apartment + learn vocabulary, so to speak, in passing.

- Play vocabulary (learn d): town, country, river on

Engl., Who knows most of the Engl. Animals, furniture, clothes etc?

Tea kettle, taboo, memory, bingo, scrabble and much more.

- Also speak English privately, with friends, family etc. And simulate everyday situations: Daily routine, cooking, shopping, doctor, cinema, theater, hospital, bakery, museum, train station, airport, hotel, restaurant etc.

- When walking, going to school, shopping, etc., think about what the things you see are called in English. Look up words you didn't know in the dictionary at home.

- read english books, newspapers, magazines

- watch engl television + engl videos

- Listen to engl radio + engl podcasts

- BBC on the Internet, with podcast download

- English very easy - The new listening course, Hueber

- BBC Podcast 6 Minute English (Google)

- Podcast archive: Business Spotlight Podcast - podcast. De / podcast / 2756 / archive /? Page = 11

- Randall's ESL Cyber Listening Lab (Google)

- audioenglish.net

- autoenglish.org/listenings.htm

- Attend English language + conversation courses (e.g. VHS), round tables, theater groups, reading groups

- join an Engl-German society, an Engl-German circle of friends

- Set up Skype + find native English speakers to speak to

- Looking for English letter / email / chat friends and / or tandem partners

- write a diary in English

It does not matter whether you work with the good, old vocabulary book, a card index box or an electrical vocabulary trainer.

Most schools in Bavaria recommend phase6 as a vocabulary trainer. But you have to buy it.

(see: phase-6. De / opencms / Homepage /)

Pons offers a free vocabulary trainer app, see: de. Pons. Com / specials / apps

or enter in Google - comparison vocabulary trainer and follow the links, e.g. B. This one:

Stiftung Warentest has also tested vocabulary trainers. https://www.test.de/Apps-Vokabeltrainer-Englisch-Lernhaeppchen-4236368-0/

Since a language is not just a sequence of v. Vocabulary, but these should also be connected to sentences as sensibly as possible, it is just as important to practice grammar for 10-15 minutes on a regular basis: ego4u. De + English help. De.

Stopping every time watching series / films, writing down + looking up quickly becomes annoying + spoils the fun of it. I would only stop + look up vocabulary or phrases if you don't understand very long sequences.

If anything, I would just write down a few catch phrases.

Use series / films for listening comprehension + the speech melody, not for learning vocabulary. There are better methods (see above).

Please also consider practice makes perfect, as with reading, by the way. It will be difficult at first, but over time you will listen to + it will be easier.

You have to try for yourself whether it is easier for you if you - if possible - watch films with subtitles. Often these are more distracting than helping.

But here are my favorite films and series:

- On Golden Pond (youtube. Com / watch? V = tvHTLc02XUY)

- I Never Promised You a Rose Garden (movies. Msn. Com / movies / movie / i-never-promised-y
