We are Mandeep and Dan

Dan, on the other hand, does the "tech" stuff and not much else. But he's been doing it for a while.
Gendarmenmarkt, Berlin. About 100 years ago.
And now we have put together everything we know.
Using our knowledge of what works and what doesn’t, we make fun viewing guides built on solid principles of learning design, 20 years of classroom experience and some seriously good TV.
So, what's the Watch and Learn way?
We build language viewing guides based on popular TV and film. We work mostly with content hosted on the Netflix platform.
We find all the interesting language and cultural points you need to understand every scene and get every joke.
We package each guide to bring you to the most relevant language points at the same time as you are enjoying the show. Then, we build on this by expanding on the same language and culture points in exercises, crosswords, word searches and Quizlet flashcards.
The result is an engaging and effective way to learn authentic language as it's spoken on your favourite shows.
Watch and Learn helps you ...

Mandeep is an excellent English tutor. I found her and the content she designed for individuals very efficient. I remember that one of the areas she worked with me on was how to sound natural in speaking and writing. This had a strong impact on my English language skills. I strongly recommend her.
With Mandeep, I not only improved my English, but also grew my confidence to speak in public and without embarrassment in another language. Her classes are fun and enjoyable and she focuses a lot on the aspects you need to improve in a personalized way giving you recommendations and great support.
