Did you call me a muggle at the beggining of this video?

[alexissalgado]

He actually looks like Mister Potter.
What an excellent video, perfect teacher.

[GaStLeZt]

Another video for second movie! :) I also like the accent of Draco Malfoy and his father, Lucius.

[Aresgregor]

I'll be waiting for Severus Snape's and Albus Dumbledore's accent. :)

[nopipapadopoulou]

Loved it! But it was too short 🤣🤣 please do a second, and a third, and a forth... 😁😁😁

[gradyzyner]

OBVIOUSLY, we need six more of these, if you follow the novels, or seven more of these, if you follow the films. Great stuff Tom. 😊👍👍👍😎

I've said it before, but I'll say it again: Brilliant Harry Potter you make Tom!! <3

I would be most grateful if you could make a second video of "Learn with Harry Potter". I would also love to see more transformations from you.:) It was a wonderfully informative and marvellously entertaining video! Thank you so much!

[Jack-sfkl]

Please make another video of Harry Potter series

[JIManzioni]

I can't even tell you how MUCH I learnt from watching the Harry Potter films. I once bingewatched them all (not in a day, of course not) but pausing at every word, phrase or idiom that I wasn't 100% sure of what they meant or how to use them myself, and then write it down.

To this day when I teach something I learnt from doing that, I remember the exact film (sometimes even the scene) in which I learnt that piece of vocabulary.

<3 Big time nerd over here lmao

Please talk about the Scottish accent! (have you seen the Bodyguard?) how to sound Scottish? and HP review is great, too.

[Keyboardje]

To me it sounds as if Harry's accent changes in the later movies. It sounds breathier, less well pronounciated. Or is it just Daniel Radcliffe's way of speaking that comes through more in time which makes it sound so different?

I found your channel today, after a hard week of too much work. I also work as a teacher and I believe the best classes are the ones that look like a friendly conversation. I’ve just realized I’ve been watching your videos and I learned so many things in a short period of time because it seemed like a cool mate sharing his knowledge with me. So, thank you! I’ll definitely keep watching your videos. You’re brilliant! I love it.

[claudiaf.]

Wow Tom, this video is great! I teach English as a foreign language and I'm sure my students would love this video! I'll definitely show it to them during one of my future lessons. They are young teenagers and they love Harry Potter!

[spriggansiedeutsch]

Even though I am from the northern U.S. and speak fluent English, I still watch all your videos for the lovely accents. More HP!

[kanyadawong-arun]

Woww i really love this videoo. Hagrid’s accent is the most difficult to catch 😂 i couldn’t understand him if i didn’t put the subtitles on lol. This video is the perfect combination of learning both vocabs and accents altogether at the same time with the movie i love. Thank you for making such a wonderful video. Wishing to see the upcoming videos about the whole harry potter series😘

[Ilovetaytayqueen]

I really loved this. I'm Latin and I know a lot of English but for me it's important to improve my English pronunciation and vocabulary. Thanks a lot

[angelamaciel]

I Love your videos 🙋‍♀️ Thank you I am from Brazil 🇧🇷

[huseroland]

When I started to learn English by myself, I watched these movies so much to listening to proper English. Except for the "magical words" it's so easy to catch everything they say. Absolutely one of the best sources out there!

[abdullahhamly]

Hell
Yeah.
We need the second part.
