Top Tips For…
german Entertainment
Criminal- Netflix Series
Binge-watching German series is actually educational! Listening to people speaking in German in real-life contexts is crucial to develop your listening skills, so why not watch a series of German origin, such as Criminal, a series of stand-alone episodes in which each one consists of a gripping-police investigation to solve a crime. Watching Criminal in its original language can be challenging even for advanced learners, but try not to use the dubbed version of the series. Instead, turn on the English subtitles and start training your ear. Learn more about Criminal here!german Entertainment
