I've been a big fan of Duolingo for years, and I've really fallen in love with their new(ish) Stories. They're great fun, and easy to understand, even if you don't speak the language.

In this video I show a way of using Duolingo Stories in different languages as a way of enriching your students' English vocabulary - yes, it really works! I've used this lesson several times with students of different levels, from B1 all the way up to C2, and it's always been a success. Give it a try and see for yourself!

Making videos for YouTube and producing materials for teachers and students alike is a time-consuming and often expensive business.
But any little help I can get would make a big difference, so please, think about tipping me a dollar or two so that I can continue making videos for you all.
Thank you so much!
