It is of huge importance that each film is designed to develop your student’s skills in “applying the language they already know” to enable them to follow the stories.
We know that new language should always be presented surrounded by familiar vocabulary and phrases to indirectly expose them to unfamiliar words. Onatti Films contains many different characters within the story. This gives the students watching the opportunity to hear many different tones and intonations. This helps to maintain their attention and enjoyment throughout the film and also gives teachers more scope for activities, questions and observation exercises.
The plots in our films will highlight many similarities to your student’s life, set within a backdrop of a foreign country, making them relatable and increasing their enjoyment by empathising with the characters and storylines.
These films are specifically targeted at students learning a foreign language but when these are shown to native speakers they also hugely enjoy our films. This is important to us as it shows that, although the language is simple, it is fully understood and very entertaining for all audiences.
Your students deserve to watch authentic foreign language films. Within the constants of targeted vocabulary and sentence structure Onatti will always bring exciting modern short films which mix level appropriate language with engaging and entertaining stories - we will never patronise.
