Learn English Conversation with Movies is special not only because you get to watch a whole free moviewith the course and study the language in every conversation. Learn English Conversation with Movies is special not only because you get so many different hard skills in one comprehensive course.

Learn English Conversation with Movies is special because you learn how native English communication works on a deep level.

You learn not just how to have conversations where you say exactly what you mean. You also learn how to have conversations that involve hidden, non-literal meanings, such as: implications, similes, metaphors, jokes, sarcasm, allusion, hyperbole.

This is the difference between understanding a real native English conversation, and being lost in literal language without understanding the real meanings that native speakers understand in English conversation.

In Learn English Conversation with Movies, you get:

  • A 100% complete and free classic movie (Charade), in which we study every conversation

  • Scenes without subtitles as well as scenes with subtitles

  • In-depth study of the deeper meanings of each conversation

  • Lessons on vocabulary and expressions

  • Listening practice activities

  • Speaking activities - listen and repeat the characters, and respond to the characters in a conversation

  • Prediction activities

  • Much, much more!

You get a more detailed study of the real meanings behind English conversations than you will get in any other course. This is the course that shows you what native speakers really mean!

You get to listen to each conversation in the movie three times, and most lessons follow this structure:

  1. You are asked 1-2 focus questions that you must listen to the conversation for the answer for.

  2. You watch the scene all the way through with no subtitles. Answer the focus question(s).

  3. You learn the key vocabulary and expressions in the conversation.

  4. You watch all the way through with subtitles.

  5. You learn the deeper, non-literal meanings of the language used in the conversation.

  6. You watch the scene a third time (no subtitles), and this time you repeat the sentences during the pauses after they are spoken.

No course like this has been created before.

The movie you watch in this course is a classic - Charade. It is a thriller full of suspense, romance, excitement - and most importantly, fantastic dialogue.

The English conversations in this highly entertaining movie are loaded with meanings below the surface - implications, hints, humor, flirtation, allusion, metaphor, and more!

You learn all of that. You practice all of that.

And you get to learn and practice it by watching and analyzing this amazing movie, using real and authentic language.

Don't continue to be confused and stuck at understanding the language without the full native meaning.

So what do you have to lose? There is no risk. But there is so much to gain.

Jump in, watch a movie, and practice advanced English conversation.
