Good series on improving English?

Do you know series on Netflix with which you can improve your English well.

And what would you recommend me subtitles in German or English?

Important is:

clear pronunciation

Cool series

Not too difficult to understand

Clear pronunciation is always a little difficult, as British series in particular are often cast with British / Scottish actors who speak with a strong accent. At some point you get used to it and you also learn to understand people better.

Nevertheless, you can start with American series first. It has always been easier for me to understand American, because they speak a little clearer, but there are also blatant accents.

I never used subtitles, but I think English makes more sense because you may already know a little more about the written area and therefore know the correct pronunciation of the word.

These series are not necessarily easy, but these are the series that I watched directly in English:

Friends, Game of Thrones, BBC Sherlock, The Witcher, Stranger Things

I watched Atypical in English. Nice light series with a lot of emotions. And since the episodes are not long, I found that to be the most practical. I saw them first in German and then again in English. I also had scenes with German subtitles played again that I did not fully understand afterwards… Sounds quite complicated, but it worked best for me.

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

That is why other learning methods are also important + right, like

- Travel to English-speaking countries, if possible alone, otherwise you are more than welcome to send your companion

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

retrieving them and using them - means learning them regularly in small portions + not only stubbornly memorizing them, but also building families of words + example sentences, using prepositions, grammar. Peculiarities etc. To learn

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

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

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

o. Glue other words into the whole apartment + learn words as you go by.

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

Engl., Who knows most Engl. Animals, furniture, clothing, etc?

Teakettle, 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, on the way to school, shopping, etc., think about what the things you see are called in English. Look up words you didn't know at home in the dictionary.

- read books, newspapers, magazines

- watch tv and videos

- Listen to English radio + English 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), regulars' tables, theater groups, reading circles

- join an Engl-Deutsche Gesellschaft, an Engl-Deutsche Freundeskreis

- Set up Skype + search for native speakers as a conversation partner

- Search for letter / email / chat friends and / or tandem partners

- write a diary

It does not matter whether you work with the good old vocabulary book, a card index box or an electric 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 a vocabulary trainer on Google comparison and follow the links, e.g. B. This one:

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

But since a language is not just a string of words. Vocabulary is, but it should also be combined into sentences as sensibly as possible, it is just as important to practice grammar regularly for 10-15 minutes: ego4u. De + english help. De.

When watching series / films, stopping every time, 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 to learn vocabulary. There are better methods (see above).

Please also keep in mind that practice makes perfect, just like reading. It will be difficult in the beginning, but over time you will become familiar + it will become easier.

You have to try it out for yourself if it is easier for you - if possible - to watch films with subtitles. Often these distract rather than help.
