    I always had subtitles on when playing video games as a kid.

    It really enhanced my reading comprehension and writing.

      That’s a good way to get better at reading comprehension. In fact, it doesn’t matter what you read, just that you read. I’m even a fan of comic books (at MY age) and graphic novels, sometimes I even pick up a section of the encyclopedia just to sit and read for fun.
