Answer:
Videos/TV shows are great source of ‘real-life’ English language and the pictures will help your child to understand what is being said.
Videos/TV can also help children to:
become familiar with different accents
watch facial expressions, body language and gestures used in different cultures
develop their understanding of the world and ‘real’ situations outside the classroom.
Most of all, children love learning through videos/TV. It can be a great source of motivation – one of the most important factors in language learning.
Cambridge English TV
Our official YouTube channel has lots of free videos to help you practise English.
Learning tip
Choose a short video, such as one of our videos about English language idioms. Look at the title of the video (for example, ‘A Piece of Cake’). Each make a guess – what will you see in the video? Then watch the clip and see who was right.
Choosing what to watch
Try watching a video/TV series – the episodes are usually much shorter than films. Your child will become familiar with the characters and how they talk. This repetition is really useful for learning.
The best videos/TV shows for learning English will have:
lots of visuals that illustrate what is being said
clear pronunciation, spoken not too fast
lots of language repetition
good picture and sound quality.
If you need some ideas, here are some of the top-rated children’s TV shows. For example, check out these TV shows that promote literacy and TV shows that promote communication.
Remember, film trailers can also be very motivating as they are often short and exciting.
Learning tip for 5–12 year olds
Choose videos/TV shows aimed at your child’s age group. These shows often have lots of repetition and opportunities for children to join in, repeat language and copy actions.
Young children love to hear their favourite stories, songs and videos/TV shows again and again. It’s fine to watch several times. This will help build their understanding and their confidence to repeat language.
Learning tip for 13–18 year olds
Watch some different film trailers with your child. Ask them to:
talk about what happened in each trailer
compare the films – what was similar/different
decide which one they would prefer to watch.
As an extension, they might also like to invent an ending to the film and act it out.
This activity could lead on to the writing of film reviews, which would help them prepare for Cambridge English Qualifications such as B2 First.
