While conducting research, I studied information about the variety of English films. I conducted a survey and identified the children's ability to learn the language. I found out that learning a foreign language can take place with ease and pleasure. I have considered such a method as "Learning a language through watching movies and TV series". Thanks to it, students can not make much effort to remember the words. They will be remembered by themselves, on a subconscious level, and will be put into practice in the future. Thus, I came to the conclusion that learning English through watching movies and TV shows is effective.
