Question 1

Where to watch Friends

Accepted Answer

While we are able to provide you with all the learning materials, like the PDF Power Lessons, the Memrise Vocabulary training, the PDF & audio reviews, and so much more, unfortunately we are not able to legally provide you with the actual episodes of the TV series Friends.

However, you will find the series available on many online streaming services, both free and paid. Here are a few options:

Ororo.TV

Ororo.TV is a free online streaming service that offers a variety of TV series and movies — and depending on which country you are from, you may have access to the TV series Friends.

Question 2

I want to practice speaking and listening skills

Accepted Answer

It might sound obvious, but really the only way to get better at speaking is… by speaking!

| We have been told this same problem so many times that we decided to develop our own mobile app to connect learners from all around the world, and help them practice speaking together. You can find our RealLife English app here.

Understanding native speakers can be difficult because we are not given many opportunities when we learn the language in school. We have some resources to help you improve your listening, and have FUN while doing it!

ALso, we created our podcast, RealLife English Podcast, to help learners like you who have problems understanding native speakers.

Question 3

I want to practice my speaking

Accepted Answer

Although our lessons are focused on developing your listening skills, we are confident in saying that it will have a great, positive effect on the other three communication skills — reading, writing, and especially speaking.

That happens mainly because by improving your listening, you will automatically improve your speaking, as these abilities are much more interconnected than we think when we are having a natural language-learning experience (which is exactly what our lessons are focused on providing).

Here are a few articles we've written that may help you develop your speaking skills more naturally:
