I love this guy! Ich liebe ihn! And I also think most things in German sound hilarious so when AlexiBexi translates English pop music into German it's going to be a hit. He also happens to be somewhat of a comedian so the videos are always entertaining too. Click here to see AlexiBexi's songs oder Chart Songs auf Deutsch! Below is my fav.....
I have used these songs as a hook in my classes or simply as a way to advertise German to younger grades so they can see how fun it can be! And the students loved it. Learning the words to Call me maybe in German is quite addictive.
In my search for the Call me maybe video I stumbled across another great section of his called Ich mag's Lecker in which he makes different recipes. Really funny although probably too difficult for most school students. Unless they are native students doing extension.They could still be a great resource to get the students to write the recipe and learn common phrases such as Na, klar which he uses a bit as it's quite casual. Here's the one I watched today in which AlexiBexi makes a cute little dessert and confirms my deutsche Freundin Joana's advice that there really is no word in German for fluffy by using the word "fluffy" auf Englisch!
Let me know what you guys think and of any other ideas for teaching German using YouTube or other videos!
