World Languages: Video & Audio

Regardless of your level, you can find someone who is teaching that language on Youtube, or just speaking it, and it’s a great way to immerse yourself in your target language without actually being in the country where it’s spoken. And it’s so much better than movies because people on Youtube usually use everyday language, which is exactly what you need to get used to the real language rather than the one in the textbooks.

TED is a nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less). TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, and today covers almost all topics — from science to business to education — in more than 100 languages.
