Title: Dreaming Spanish: YouTube Channel
Body:
From https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCouyFdE9-Lrjo3M_2idKq1A/about
The Dreaming Spanish YouTube channel provides interesting comprehensible input for learners of Spanish. Get used to real Spanish used in context, and eventually develop a native-like intuition for the grammar and the vocabulary, together with a clear pronunciation. The videos try to be easy enough for a complete beginner in the language to get the gist of the story and start picking up vocabulary.
This method is based on the ALG method developed by Dr. J. Marvin Brown (http://algworld.com/) and Stephen Krashen's Comprehensible Input theory.
The Dreaming Spanish blog, with more information about the method, is available at http://www.dreaminglanguages.com
The Dreaming Spanish YouTube channel is available at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCouyFdE9-Lrjo3M_2idKq1A/featured

Title: Teaching English With Authentic Video
Body:
Paul Maglione and Frederic Tibout have written a white paper about using authentic videos in English classes. From the introduction:
“This White Paper is intended as a guide to integrating authentic video into best TEFL practices, particularly for the current ‘digital native’ generation of English language learners – adolescents, teens and adults - who have grown up with online video not as a technological innovation, but as a part of their everyday reality.”
