Want to know something interesting? After watching a movie or series on repeat for a few days, we start to know some of the words and can repeat them. Entertainment is truly a universal language because it connects people. And sometimes, learning Spanish in a traditional way can be boring, so it’s not a bad idea to use songs, movies, and series to learn the language in a fun way.

Here are our top activities to learn Spanish while having fun:

Singing Popular Spanish Songs

Music is a powerful tool for language learning. Here are some songs that are not only catchy but also useful for improving your Spanish.

• Vivir Mi Vida – Marc Anthony 

This upbeat and energetic song is perfect for practicing simple and motivating phrases. Its catchy rhythm will make you want to sing it over and over.

• El Fin del Mundo – La La Love You

With its cheerful style and easy-to-follow lyrics, this song is ideal for beginners. You’ll also learn some colloquial and cultural expressions.

• Me Voy – Julieta Venega

Its slow rhythm makes it easier to focus on the meaning of the lyrics. The ideal is to listen to the music and read the lyrics, and of course sing along!

2. Watching Movies and TV Series in Spanish

Cinema is an excellent way to improve your listening comprehension and learn new expressions in context. Almodóvar is a famous Spanish director whose movies won several prizes. Series allow you to listen to the language continuously and get used to different accents and rhythms. Here are some popular options:

• Money Heist (La Casa de Papel) 

This suspenseful series will keep you on the edge of your seat while you practice your Spanish. Plus, you’ll get familiar with vocabulary related to crime and strategy.

Learning Spanish doesn’t have to be boring. By incorporating music, movies and series, karaoke, and interactive apps into your learning routine, you can improve your language skills in a fun and effective way. Additionally, if you decide to host an exchange student, you’ll have the opportunity to practice Spanish every day, enriching both your life and your family’s with new cultural experiences.
