video we learned that it is very helpful

to study with English television

programs but the question is how exactly

should you study well there is actually

a simple 5 step guide to properly

studying English with television

programs let me explain usually there

are many different characters in

television programs as an English

Learner it can be quite confusing to

follow the storyline because you don’t

understand the relationship between the

characters so that is why step one is so

important step one is find the main

characters after you have found the main

characters the next thing you need to do

is write 3 facts or important points

about each of them step 2 after

determining the main characters it is

important to figure out exactly when the

story is actually taking place and for

example sometimes the television

programs may be set in certain seasons

like fall summer or even winter so step

2 is determine the time period for this

step you can write down if the story is

set in the past present or in the future

like Star Wars you can also get more

specific and write down the time of day

the main story happens step 3

next you need to find out the location

of the television program for example is

it happening in Paris or maybe it’s at

someone’s house or maybe a university or

maybe even just in the city

this information will help you to

understand the story much better so step

three is find the location there are

three things that you should include for

the location you should write whether it

is set in a specific country state or

city you should write if it is at the

character’s workplace home school or

some other place and you should also

write down new places that appear in the

television program step 4

then you should figure out the general

flow of the story you should be able to

do this as you watch the television

program and as the scenes change so step

four is figure out the plot of the story

the main things you need to recognize

for this step are the storyline the

issue the climax and the solution this

information will help you to summarize

the story in your mind step 5

finally you need to determine what your

opinion is of the television program

there are some English television

programs that you will like and there

are some that you will not like it is

important for you to understand what you

actually like to watch and why so step 5

is write a review your review should not

only include your opinion of the

television program but also three

reasons why you feel that way these are

the five simple steps to properly

studying English with television

programs got another English question
