The PODCAST + SUBTITLES + SPANISHDICT + REPEAT combo (GOATED)
1️⃣ Find a YouTube Podcast you enjoy but challenges your listening (Think 70-75% understanding)
2️⃣ Add Spanish subtitles to the Podcast
3️⃣ Pause each time there's a word or phrase you don't know and look it up on SpanishDictionary 4️⃣ Read every example sentence using that word
5️⃣ Repeat until done
6️⃣ Rewatch same podcast a day or two later and repeat.
Understand this can be EXHAUSTING. Assuming a 30-60 minute podcast, you might be looking up 50-100 words, (oftentimes the same words over again😅) making it truly a 2-2.5 hour commitment, but I promise it's worth it.
The most important part is to do it again. The second or third listen is when you best convert those words to memory, because you'll be on autopilot for the easier dialogue. It lets you predict and isolate the difficult words while better understanding the context.
Think about noticing new details in the show you watch for a second time.
It's why I watched Narcos Mexico 4x (would recommend)
