Hello
I have been using Language Learning with Netflix (LLN) to practice listening skills but I’m unsure about the best subtitle settings to maximize comprehension without becoming too reliant on reading.
Some people suggest using dual subtitles (native + target language); while others recommend only target-language subtitles / even no subtitles at all for immersion. I find that when I disable my native language subtitles, I sometimes struggle with fast dialogue but when they’re on; I tend to read instead of listen.
What has worked best for others? Is there an ideal progression; like starting with dual subtitles & gradually transitioning to only target-language subtitles?
Also; do any specific LLN settings help reinforce learning; such as automatic pause or pop-up translations? Checked Ask the community - Language Learning with Netflix Forum AWS Online Training related to this and found it quite informative.
Would love to hear different strategies from experienced learners! If there’s an official guide or recommendations on subtitle usage for different learning levels, please share.
Thank you !!
