Masha and the Bear is a useful option for intermediate learners who want natural English without jumping into something too difficult. The storyline is easy to follow, so missing a few words should not stop learners from understanding what is happening. Learners will hear plenty of useful natural English, but some lines may still require a second listen. Conversations usually leave enough room to process what is being said. Masha and the Bear works best for learners around B1/B2 who are ready for more demanding vocabulary.
