Listening Advice and Exercises

Hi Diana,

First of all, I wanna thank you for the amazing and useful job you've been doing with both your website and newsletter.
I think it could be a good idea to make a listening section on your website.
You know, that's a difficult ability to get for a foreign learner. Sometimes you understand nothing when listening, although if you read the same content you get it immediately.

I know you've already put some really useful tips, but what I mean here it's some more advice on how improve effectively with a method.

For example how movie can help? Should we watch them with or without subs?

Another idea could be making audio/video podcasts (I know it requires lot of time you might not have).

Thank you again.

All the best.
