CineLearn Home
Our language learning startup offers a unique and effective way to learn multiple languages through overlayed subtitles on popular TV shows and movies, making language acquisition both fun and immersive. Say goodbye to tedious language exercises and hello to learning a new language while binge-watching your favorite shows!
Lack of immersion: Many language learning apps focus on vocabulary and grammar, but don't provide enough exposure to real-world contexts, which can make it difficult for learners to develop practical communication skills.
Repetitive exercises: While exercises can be effective for reinforcing learning, some language learning apps rely too heavily on repetitive exercises that can quickly become tedious and demotivating.
Ineffective for advanced learners: Language learning apps often cater to beginners, but can struggle to provide more advanced learners with the depth and complexity of materials they need to continue making progress.
Immersion: By providing subtitles and explanations side by side, learners are able to immerse themselves in real-world contexts and develop practical communication skills.
Engaging learning experience: Foreign cinema and TV series can be highly engaging, providing learners with a fun and interesting way to learn a new language.
Contextual learning: Learners are able to learn words and phrases in context, helping them to better understand how to use them in real-life situations.
Pronunciation and accent practice: Hearing the spoken language alongside written subtitles helps learners practice pronunciation and accent in a natural way.
User Research: Spend some time initially doing some initial user research to set a priority of list of features to build.
Prompt and Pedagogy Engineering: Prompt Large language models (GPT4, LLAMA etc.) with different pedagogical models (Bloom's Taxonomy) to create lesson plans for users to learn over the duration of a movie/episode.
Browser Extension: Building another streaming platform is not our goal, so a browser extension that can be applied to videos in a “teleparty-esq” way will be our goal here for simple UI. The stack is based in HTML,CSS, Javascript.
Insight generation: Develop an automated system for extracting subtitles and providing word-by-word explanations from streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon Prime, or Hulu using existing Large LLMs (GPT 3.5 API, LLAMA supported by a simple rest api run microservice in Django/Flask)
