00:25
personally used in the past so this is my personal  experience only I try to include a wide range of  
5
25440
6240
00:31
channels and YouTubers who make content about  a lot of different things and who speak English  
6
31680

a lot of other things if you search for inkvit  on YouTube you will see that they have multiple  
11
59940
5280
01:05
YouTube channels by different teachers and to be  completely honest in the past I used to only watch  
12
65220
6000
01:11
one Creator one teacher her name is Ronnie and her  channel is called English with Ronnie the reason  
13
71220
6060
01:17
why I especially like her content is because  first of all from what I remember she's from  
14
77280
5040
01:22
Canada and when I was in college I really wanted  to move to Canada so you know I was trying to  
15
82320
5460
01:27
consume as much content as I could about Canada  or by Canadians and plus her personality is just  
16
87780
7200
01:34
amazing the way she teaches English is super fun  I especially like her videos where she teaches  
17
94980
6300
01:41
you vocabulary in English because oftentimes  she goes very deep especially when it comes  
18
101280
5520
01:46
to informal expressions and slang like on her  Channel you will find a lot of videos that are  
19
106800
5280
01:52
like very personal but at the same time they teach  you a lot of things she always tells you a lot of  
20
112080
5520
01:57
personal stories and she talks about dating and  romantic relationships like very openly and she  
21
117600
5880
02:03
teaches you all of those amazing words connected  to this topic the second channel here is Rachel's  
22
123480
5220
02:08
English it's hosted by Rachel and she is an expert  when it comes to pronunciation and accent training  
23
128700
6780
02:15
she always provides clear explanations and rules  that can help you improve your American accent to  
24
135480
6600
02:22
be honest with you guys Rachel was the person who  helped me improve my accent and I owe so much to  
25
142080
7980
02:30
her content like I'm extremely grateful right  now you see me here speaking English having a  
26
150060
6480
02:36
pretty good accent I think and it's all thanks to  her thanks to her and a lot of other resources I  
27
156540
6060
02:42
used but she's definitely up there at the top  I remember watching her videos non-stop when I  
28
162600
5580
02:48
was in college because I really wanted to prove  my accent and her videos are perfect for that  
29

02:53
English with Lucy Lucy's channel is known for its  energetic and informative videos she always always  
30
173880
6300
03:00
covers a wide range of topics grammar vocabulary  you know a lot of different things also cultural  
31
180180
7860
03:08
things about the life in Great Britain she's  British so her videos are perfect for you guys  
32
188040
4860
03:12
if you want to have a nice British accent Lucy  teachers receive pronunciation RP which is a  
33
192900
6480
03:19
proper term to describe the originally neutral  accent used by many middle class speakers in  
34
199380
4980
03:24
the UK particularly in England and if you're  not really interested in British English her  
35
204360
4620
03:28
videos are still extremely informative and the way  she teaches is a lot of fun and also you have to  
36
208980
5340
03:34
remember that once you reach this like advanced  level in a language you do have to like venture  
37
214320
6000
03:40
out there and try to listen to different accents  and dialects obviously at the very beginning it's  
38
220320
6360
03:46
better I think it was better for me to stick  to one accent for example the American accent  
39
226680
4800
03:51
but then at one point I was like okay I need to  start understanding the British accent too because  
40
231480
5220
03:56
obviously people from Great Britain speak in a  different way than people from the United States  
41
236700
5520

55
312840
4560
05:17
video now let's move on to Lifestyle content  when it comes to Lifestyle content the world  
56
317400
4860
05:22
is your oyster really or better YouTube is  your oyster because it all depends on what  
57
322260
5940
05:28
kind of Lifestyle content you enjoy watching right  because some people like content that is more like  
58
328200
6540
05:34
family friendly that is about creating a family  building a family others people enjoy watching  
59
334740
6420
05:41
travel Vlogs for example so it all depends on  you but as a non-native speaker I know that one  
60
341160
5880
05:47
problem we all experience is that when we start  watching lifestyle content a lot of people speak  
61
347040
6360
05:53
extremely fast right because obviously they're  native speakers and they're just talking at their  
62
353400
5460
05:58
natural conversation additional pace which is  sometimes a little bit too fast for us and so  
63
358860
5280
06:04
that's why the channels that I have chosen for  this video are the channels where I think the  
64
364140
4200
06:08
creators don't speak too fast Alicia Marie Vlogs  Alicia's channel will give you a sneak peek into  
65
368340
6420
06:14
what it's like being a Creator in L.A if you live  in the United States or would like to do so one  
66
374760
6120
06:20
day if you're interested in what it's like being  a YouTuber and living in a lay her content is the  
67
380880
7020
06:27
best here her personality is super fun and she  speaks with this clear American La girl accent  
68
387900
7200
06:35
to be honest in my opinion her channel is full of  that girl or La girl Aesthetics so if you're into  
69
395100
6900
06:42
this kind of thing you will enjoy watching  her videos a lot Catherine Manning her life  
70
402000
5340
06:47
motto is create the life you love and you will  even see this on her YouTube Banner she shares  
71
407340
6060
06:53
content about renovating her dream house becoming  a full-time content creator and also getting ready  
72
413400
5880
06:59
to become come a first-time mom she lives in the  United States too so she speaks with this American  
73
419280
5100
07:04
accent but I think her content is a lot more  relatable and down to earth because she just talks  
74
424380
4920
07:09
about her everyday life Sarah's day Sarah is from  Australia and she shares content about her life  
75
429300
6060
07:15
with her husband and her two sons in Australia  her content is perfect if you're interested in  
76
435360
5580
07:20
health wellness and nutrition because even though  yes she's mostly filming Vlogs she's filming a  
77
440940
7440
07:28
lot about like what she eats and like all her  workouts and everything so if you're into this  
78
448380
5580
07:33
kind of thing you will enjoy her videos a lot and  plus she's from Australia so she has a super fun
79
453960
5580
07:43
and plus she's from Australia so she speaks  for this Australian accent and she uses a lot  
80
463860
5220
07:49
of super fun words in English now let's move on to  productivity channels and the first person I want  
81
469080
5880
07:54
to talk about is Matt develop he's a documentary  filmmaker entrepreneur and YouTuber he's made a  
82
474960
6120
08:01
couple of documentaries for Netflix and the  quality of his YouTube videos is Top Notch  
83
481080
6180
08:07
he mostly makes videos about self-improvement but  he has become extremely famous for his challenges  
84
487260
7080
08:14
where he challenged himself to quit sugar for  30 days or take cold showers for 30 days so if  
85
494340
7080
08:21
you're into this kind of thing it's kind of like  a challenge yes but it's more about like improving  
86
501420
5400
08:26
your life right like challenge that might help  you improve your life or maybe not no one knows  
87
506820
5400
08:32
so if you want to know you have to check out his  videos from what I remember I think he's American  
88
512220
4800
08:37
but right now he is living in Australia with his  wife and their newborn baby Ali of dull probably  
89
517020
7860
08:44
the most famous productivity YouTuber out there he  recently published his own book about productivity  
90
524880
5760
08:50
that will be coming out later this year and  of course I immediately got this book because  
91
530640
5640
08:56
I'm a huge fan of his content I'm a huge fan of  everything he is creating and I had to be one of  
92
536280
6000
09:02
the first people to read his book he makes videos  about the best productivity systems about how to  
93
542280
5400
09:07
organize your life about how to study effectively  and also how to become a YouTuber he's from Great  
94
547680
5580
09:13
Britain and I think he lives in London so if you  want to improve your British English his videos  
95
553260
5640
09:18
are the way to go Amy landino to be honest I'm not  extremely familiar with her content I have only  
96
558900
6360
09:25
watched a few of her videos that are connected  with planning and like writing things down in  
97
565260
6480
09:31
your planner but basically she mostly films  videos about productivity time management and  
98
571740
5040
09:36
business strategies I think if you're like me  if you like journaling if you like planning or  
99
576780
5040
09:41
using your planner then her videos are perfect for  that because basically she has this series on her  
100
581820
6120
09:47
YouTube channel where she shares how she plans her  future months for example right now I'm filming  
101
587940
5040
09:52
this video in September so probably on her Channel  you can already see like a video for September how  
102
592980
4980
09:57
she's planning her September and then for the  next month for the month of October December  
103
597960
5040
10:03
Etc and finally let's move on to the channels that  I call learn something new channels pick up lines  
104
603000
5940
10:08
this channel is mainly known for their cooking  videos so they teach you how to cook delicious  
105
608940
7440
10:16
nutritious recipes but recently pickup lines  has started making videos about productivity  
106
616380
5940
10:22
organization and like healthy habits so their  videos are still connected to this topic of  
107
622320
5820
10:28
wellness and nutrition but maybe you don't like  cooking so maybe you can watch their other videos  
108
628140
5940
10:34
that are more connected to healthy routines and  nutrition and I always say if you want to learn  
109
634080
4680
10:38
vocabulary connected to cooking you have to  watch content that is about cooking so if you  
110
638760
6480
10:45
watch their videos you will learn a lot of spices  in English you will learn a lot of verbs that are  
111
645240
6360
10:51
connected to cooking so that's the perfect place  if you're interested in this topic Wendover  
112
651600
5640
10:57

113
657240
5340
11:02
geography I love watching their videos because you  can really see that a lot of people have put in a  
114

5880
11:20
they have you covered and finally Dr Mike his  videos are extremely fun and super entertaining  
117
680640
6960
11:27
he's a practicing physician living in New York  City and he makes content about medicine but about  
118
687600
5460
11:33
medicine that is easy to digest for just a regular  person because I'm not a doctor I'm not a medical  
119
693060
5820
11:38
student so a lot of words and terms might be too  hard for me so if if you are a medical student of  
120
698880
6360
11:45
course you can go ahead and watch his videos  as well but if you are a regular person just  
121
