MY IMPRESSIONS ON YOUTUBE

Phtos from flickr
This time I have to say I was really amazed by this website! I think it is wanderful! You can find videos on whatever you want, both professional and personal!

As you can see I put in my blogs two music videos from YouTube, I made this choice because I love music and I've spent so much time in the past at watching Mtv (I say in the past bacuse now I have no time to do it anymore!)! In my opinion a good song, can communicte more than one thousend words!

I put the video of 'Wanderwall' because Oasis have been my favourite group since secondary school and thanks to their songs I also learnt many English words I didn't know before: I know almost all their songs by heart!

I decided than to put a second video, 'Everlasting love', which has no particular meaning, I simply love that song and moreover it is part of the soundtrack of a film which I think represents me: Bridget Johns!

Let's go back to You Tube now. As I was saying before, this website is really great but besides being nice to visit in your freetime, it could be really useful to encrease your knowledge of English language and culture! What a better example of the video titled 'Irak'?!

Through the videos published in YouTube you can have a real insight in English and American life and culture!

Dear Ilaria,

Thank you for the videos and your explanation!

I think YouTube can be a useful resource for us: we can improve our language skills listening to real spoken English and also get in touch with a different culture.

Have a nice day,
tina

You're right, from videos on Youtube you can have an impression of different cultures and in our society becoming intercultural competent is important,

Hi Ilaria, I'm not a Oasis fan but I love that song, Wonderwall! Anyway, you're right, we can have fun "exploring" new cultures thanks to Youtube.

See you in class,
Alessandra

Hi Ilaria,

like you, I think YouTube is great and enjoyable. There are a lot of funny videos and you can find whatever you want.However, it is important to point out that it has some negative aspects, too as for example the publication of violent videos.
I like your videos and this two songs always remind me of my secondary school time:-)).

See you soon,
Susanne
