It is not because I am very much engrossed in Mylot but because of the movies I am downloading now in my laptop. Tomorrow, I will present movies to my students. I decided to choose Tagalog movies with English subtitles. I think that my students will love it more to watch movies on their first language. At the same time, having English subtitles will help them know more English words.
I promised to my principal that I will go to school very early tomorrow. It is already past 10pm in my country. I think I have to drink hot coffee or hot chocolates tomorrow in order to be always awake.
Happy Mylotting to everyone.

@LadyDuck Okay, I will try. I prefer movies that does not last more than 1 hour because my students easily gets bored. It is the reason, I showed to them different set of movies.

@JustBhem I slept late last night. I just made sure I have set the alarm earlier. Glad that I was able to fulfill my promise to my principal that I will be in the school early to beat the deadline of the reports assigned to me.

Will your students be diligent enough to even read the subtitles?

@toniganzon Yes, I think you are right. I seldom see English movies with subtitles on it. This was what @LadyDuck suggested too. I have realized I am doing the same thing too when I am studying a korean language. I'd like to watch Korean movies with hangeul subtitles on it.

@annierose Only some. I think the fastest way to teach vocabulary through a movie is using an English movie as well. When the movie is in Tagalog, when it gets interesting, students tend to not read the subtitles anymore and I am referring to Filipino students. But when it's an English movie, they tend to read the subtitle.

i believe those Filipino movies with English subtitles are also distributed to other countries or are included in foreign film festivals.
