FluentU for Authentic English

We’re always looking for new materials to immerse our students in English, no matter where they live. Better yet if we can actually keep track of how much they’re learning from those materials, right?

FluentU gives you the best of both worlds in this regard. It’s a video platform where you’ll find diverse, entertaining and authentic English videos (like movie trailers, music videos, news clips, inspiring talks and much more).

Each video is organized by learning level, so your students will always be watching something fun that matches their proficiency. The videos also come with interactive captions to actively teach students new vocabulary—all they have to do is click any word and they’ll get an instant definition and pronunciation.

But we promised you could watch how they’re doing with FluentU, right? The platform comes with built in progress tracking tools, as well as a ton of other teacher’s aids—like a curriculum builder and integration of homework assignments and student communication¹³.

It’s an entertaining and innovative twist on tried-and-true English immersion—oh, and it fits in your pocket!
