Watching movies with subtitles is becoming popular all over the world. The primary reason for this is people find it easier to get accustomed to the accent of the foreign language. So, this is quite famous in the folks living in urban areas. Just like any other languages in the world, people living in a small town and villages prefer to watch movies in their native languages. They feel more connected when they hear the characters speaking the language they speak. If you want to watch the movies in their original language, you will have to search for theatres in big cities. Even there, you will have to run a little because not every theatre showing movies in the original version. In Germany, a city like Munich has only 3 to 4 theatres which would show an original movie. That too, you will have to book an advance ticket for it. That may be the reason why people don’t get into this hustle and are satisfied with the dubbed version itself. However, there are chances that one might find the original version of the movies on the TVs with the subtitles in the native/local language. I hope I answered your question. read less

To improve speaking ability (through individual classes) depends on your teacher only
Without hesitation, you should just start speaking. Another very good way of getting over the fear of speaking is to sing. Learn German songs. Sing them loud...sing along. This will help you to overcome the speaking hesitations.
