English Learning  with movies
Let's us know how to learn English from watching movies step by step.  They use subtitles.  The problem is that when you watch a movie with subtitles, you are not practicing your listening skills but you are practicing your reading skills.  This is not what you want.  Listening is much more difficult than reading.  So when you learn, you must listen rather than wait.  That is why some people watch movies twice.  First they watch a movie with subtitles.  

This way people watch  same movie repeatedly without subtitles to practice listening.  This is an effective way to improve your hearing, but I think it is really boring to watch movies twice.  So  I never use such approach as ti is not for me.  So let me tell you about a new approach.  This approach is quite effective in improving your listening and vocabulary and with this approach.  

You don't have to watch movies twice.  Do want  to learn about my experience ?  This is what you are watching movies with delayed subtitles.  To use this approach, you need a best quality movie player that can be used to delay subtitles few seconds.  Now start watching  English movie, and use the functions of movie player to turn on the English subtitles, and delay  subtitles for  3 seconds.        

It will  delay subtitles  to appear three seconds later as usual.  Let me show you a movie clip so you know what it's like to watch a movie with delayed subtitles.  How are you?  What happened?  He was the friend.  And betrayed them.  It was that friend.  I hope you find me when you do.  I'll be ready.  When I do, I will kill him.  So what do you need to do when you watch a movie like this?  

Well, first of all, it is simple when you listen to an actor speak, try to listen with full attention, don't worry, you may not understand that you can read the subtitles later when they appear.  Now, if you can understand the actor, then don't watch the subtitles, read the subtitles only if you don't understand if the actor is talking too fast, if you feel like you need more time to read, you can pause the movie before reading the subtitles. 

Now let me show you  another movie clip this time.  Try not to read the subtitles in a list.  You don't understand, are you ready?  Here we go.  What's going on with you?  AND?  Bryce Laskey What do you mean by nothing?  Good.  My mistake, why do you think you don't worry?  

  I do not know.  I guess it's something about his eyes.  Or maybe a smile.  How did you do it?  Will you be able to understand the clip without reading the subtitles if you had to read the subtitles?  That's fine for most English learners, movies are really difficult to understand.|In fact, even native speakers have trouble understanding movies, so at first you may have to read subtitles almost all the time. 

 It's okay.  Listening is a very difficult skill to improve.  Be sure to practice a lot.  And do it regularly and over time you are listening and your vocabulary will improve.  ok , that was an overview of how to learn English from English movies.  If you want to start using this technique, there is additional information that you may need to know first.  So if you want more information, comments below
