ESL what should my children watch on youtube to learn English?

[LuciaLuciaLucia]

Forrin one here. English as a second language. Please could you recommend any nice videos, currently they watch Ben and Holly, but is getting too babyish for them. Thank you
Age DS 9, DD 11.

If you're in the UK would advise sticking to UK based programmes instead of US, my Italian cousin ended up pronouncing certain words the 'American' way rather than English (lever being a prime example )

As for actual programs - sorry can't be more help!

Anyone pls?

I would just type CBBC into YouTube and see what comes up.

My 9 year old DS loves almost never.

I’m assuming you can’t access Bbc iplayer? How about Netflix?

You should try to stick to programmes with real people rather than cartoons for learning languages.

My dc like

The worst witch would be good for your DD

I had a mother of a Y6 pupil, she spoke perfect English. When chatting one day, she told me she came to England when she was 16 to get married. I asked if she had learned English at school. "No", she replied, "I learned it from the telly."

Alphablocks is good for the sounds different letters make. It would be young for them though but worth seeking out if there is a sound they can't make.

Muzzy is often on YouTube.

It was designed for children to learn English.

BBC Teach on YouTube lots of educational videos
Horrible histories
