English speaking practice with animation


English speaking practice with Hezarfen from Hezarfen on Vimeo.

As a private English teacher, İstanbul özel ingilizce öğretmeni, I often teach private English speaking lessons, ingilizce özel ders, at cafes near Galata Tower in Istanbul. This video animates Ottoman aviator Hezârfen Ahmed Çelebi gliding off Galata Tower in 17th century Constantinople. The video can be a great language learning tool for English speaking practice, İngilizce pratik. Narrate this video with present continuous and phrasal verbs. Record your narration with vocaroo:

  • The cart is rolling.
  • The chicken is escaping/flying/bouncing
  • The man and sheep are landing on/falling through/gliding over the roof.
