Mr Bean teaches English: how film is helping language learnersHow watching -and more importantly: hearing- #
English TV/films with subitles helps to better learn the #
language.
She says she is a fan of TV gardening, and uses subtitles to aid her understanding. “I listen to the show, and if I don’t understand what they say I read and translate.”
I'm so glad I've always had to read #
subtitles because in the #
Netherlands only stuff for little childeren is dubbed. I've learned quite a lot from shows like Fawlty Towers, Monty Python, Chef! and films like Lock Stock and Snatch.
A bit surprised about mr. Bean though. Brilliant TV, absolutely hilarious, but the Blackadder has a lot more text.
