The Learning English Video Project

Hey guys.

This is teacher Adriano posting on IH Idiomas for the very first time.
Next week we have a brand new semester beginning, so I thought I`d show you something to get you in the mood. It`s called the LEARNING ENGLISH VIDEO PROJECT: a series of seven videos about English students from around the world. The students talk about their experiences learning English: what they think about the language, their difficulties, what they`ve done to overcome them, how their cultural background influenced their learning experience, among many other things.

One of the videos was shot in São Paulo (my hometown =] ) and explores the new trends in teaching and learning English that are under way exclusively in Brazil (I say that`s only natural since we have so many English schools).
You can watch the videos with or without subtitles in English. You can also download them. Teachers will be pleased to know that these videos come with worksheets and notes that can be used in the classroom (I hadn`t actually realized the potential of these videos until now).
Those who think that learning English is hard will find that they share the same difficulties as students from Spain, China and even Morocco and that becoming fluent is a matter of finding what you think is interesting and making the most of it for yourself: it could be reading about your favorite team, playing video games or even cooking. Those who already love English will get even more motivated to go on studying. So go ahead and watch it.
See you next week!
