A word on restaurants.
Some restaurants are busier and noisier than others. You may find that when you need to speak your targeted language
in the real world that it wont be in a environment with low ambient noise level like a classroom.
You should prepare for this as well. You may find listening more difficult and perhaps more fatiguing. Many (important)
social and business encounters will be in this type of environment. You should prepare and train yourself for these situations.

Watching films in your targeted language with or without the benefit of subtitles is all part of embroidering the language
into your life.
We review certain films to ensure that the translation of the dialogue is reasonably accurate.
Sometimes if you have already seen the film and enjoyed it you can concentrate upon the language translation a bit more
closely.
Two particular favourites are "Remains of the Day" and "Clueless".
They have plenty of dialogue and the films have soundtrack and subtitles in the languages we offer
