I think they do, but I believe watching a tv series/movies is better as you are more concentrated on it, it usually doesnt have vocabulary that is focused on one topic, but rather everyday speech. Of course, with podcasts you can multitask, listen to it while walking to work for example, but I found tv series as by far the best way :)

It does. it really does.

But I highly recommend to go for whatever you are interested in, music, podcast, movis, documentaries, whatever!

Good luck 👍

I believe podcasts really work for you.

If you think you're not making any progress, consider the following.

Set a task for a podcast you're listening to. You can ready made tasks, or you can think of a simpe task yourself. For instance, compare your opinion with the speaker's opinion, sum up the main ideas/facts of the podcast. Think what you would say if you were a speaker in the podcast. Write it down or say it to yourself after you finished listening.

This will help you retain your attention and remember the language used in the podcast.

I hope, somebody finds it useful.

Yeah Cristina, if you listen carefully it will help you much more you imagine.

Hi, listening bbc podcast is good way of learning English for me because there are a lot of interesting topics and you can listen different acsents in additional you can take different constructios of sentences for practice
