Teaching English with Films (UTB M (Medium-Format))

Films are popular with learners and teachers, and they
can promote a lot of competences, yet they still lead
a Cinderella existence in the foreign language classroom.
This volume tries to overcome this contradiction by providing
the teacher with theoretical and methodological
background knowledge as well as concrete lesson plans.
After an introduction to Film-based Language Learning,
the major genres are discussed, among others music
videos, sketches, commercials, sitcoms, movies and
young learners' films.

This reader-friendly introduction to an emerging field
of study is written for university students (and their
lecturers), teachers, and everybody interested in making
films a rewarding resource in foreign language classrooms.
