Netflix has a wide variety of shows from around the world. American sitcoms, old classics, Korean dramas, popular anime and more. You can spend a lifetime watching these shows, stay hooked and still not have tons to shows to watch. But, we wouldn’t recommend that. Binge-watching is a disorder after all! Is there a good excuse then for watching Netflix for long hours? Yes! Learning languages.

With content available from around the world, you can take notes and learn a lot about the language you are learning through TV shows. Don’t just sit watching with a bag of chips! Take notes and make the most of such online streaming platforms.

When learning a new language, they’ll recommend movies and TV shows to watch or display them in class. Learning the culture, nuances and getting to know the native speakers is crucial to master a new language.

Tv shows and movies provide a great medium to advance your linguistic skills. For all the thrill and excitement of the shows, you’ll also pick up on the cultural, political, and social aspects of where the show is based. For example, you’ll get glimpses of outdated English in a period drama, slang abound in a sitcom, legal terms in a court drama and simple level English in kids' TV shows.
