Oh, hey, everyone.
-
I don't know about you, but I love listening to music.
-
I guess most people do.
-
There are so many musical styles in English that you can use them to make learning more pleasurable.
-
In this video, I'll give you four tips to learn English with music.
-
Oh, and if you're a teacher, I have an extra tip for you at the end of the video.
-
Our first tip: You can choose a song you like and read along with the lyrics while you are listening to it.
-
That way you can read the words at the same time, helping with your comprehension and pronunciation.
-
Spotify now has a section where you can read the lyrics of the song whilst you are listening to it.
-
Our second tip: You can print out the lyrics and try to translate it into your own language.
-
Many songs use different expressions and idioms, so when people translate them to their own language, it makes sense to them what they are singing and hearing.
-
To help you translate, you can use the Online Cambridge Dictionary, which has more than 20 languages and options.
-
Our third tip: You can practice the song with apps like LyricsTraining.
-
In this app you listen to the song and complete the lyrics with the missing words.
-
They are great to practice listening and your overall comprehension of the song.
-
Our fourth tip: Sing.
-
After you've seen and practiced the lyrics, put the song on and sing to practice pronunciation and have fun.
-
Here is an extra tip for teachers.
-
Ask your students to bring or send you examples of songs that contain the grammar or vocabulary topic you are studying.
-
It's quite motivating for them, especially teens and adults, when they can find a practical example of what they are studying and connect it with a musical genre they enjoy.
-
Now you can enjoy music you like while you learn and practice English at the same time.
-
What kind of music do you enjoy listening to?
