Hi guys! When you are learning a new language and you are living in your home Country it can be difficult you don't hear this language all time but, thanks to the internet, we are able to solve this problem. A simple solution is to watch recordings of talks online or on TV. I like to watch the videos on a channel called English Speeches, because it has a lots of videos about people who have made history or inspired others. Another channel that I like a lot is Ted, where you can find speeches about popular themes including entrepreneurship, life experiences and languages, among others.
In this video, Emma Watson, who plays Hermione in the Harry Potter movie, discusses gender equality. The video has subtitles, which are helpful for English students. The video is just 4 minutes long, will particularly appeal to those who would like to perfect british accent.
Marc Green is Russian, and his video is about how to learn a foreign language like a native speaker. It's a good video to practice your listening and, at the same time, gain inspiration from his progress with the language.
Steve Kaufmann is a Polyglot and explains, in this video, how you can learn the most important words in your target language. Given that there are words we might never use, Kaufmann's approach is to begin with the essentials before extending your vocabulary. I particularly recommend you watch this video.
Lýdia Machová is a Polyglot, and has recorded this talk about the ten things that the Polyglots do differently from other people which contribute to their sucess in their target languages. She talks with clarity, which make it easy for the viewer to identify with her.
