Using video for language learning

One new resource I've noticed for teaching Listening is YouTube. It's a great site to locate virtually any kind of English-language situation you can think of, from movie clips to quirky personal podcasts to really, really old commercials and public service announcements.

I've posted one here.



The usual advice for using computers and/or the Internet in the classroom applies here: be vigilant, lest your students' wandering eyes be tempted by porn or other objectionable images. They can watch that on their own time.

Have fun!
