20 Videos in Spanish That Will Take Your Grammar to the Next Level

Is there any point in watching videos in Spanish if you simply want to improve your grammar?

Absolutely yes!

We all love YouTube—and not surprisingly, it’s also one of the best tools for learning languages and digesting content that may be too overwhelming or heavy in writing (especially for a topic like Spanish grammar!).

This curated list of high-quality videos in Spanish will help you choose among educational and entertaining options that are appropriate for your current level. Not all the grammar videos come with a level tag, and some of them are even tagged wrong, so let me help you here, too.

The list is divided into three sections:

Beginners
Intermediate
Advanced

Choose the ones that interest you the most… or watch them all!

Keep reading to find the best videos in Spanish to improve your grammar!

Why Watching Videos in Spanish Will Improve Your Grammar

Not everybody is a grammar fan like me (and I totally get it), but you can’t get very far in learning a language without it. This is why videos come in handy. Visuals make grammar easier, and oftentimes you learn without even realizing it.

Videos allow you to study on demand and from the comfort of your house (or wherever you are!).
