Music

Hi Steve,

good work and really nice blog indeed! I do think music is one more way to make our students enjoy English language and learn a lot about its culture (apart from the great practice it offers regarding grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, etc). I use songs in my lessons, actually I decided to do a cover version of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance (by hte cast of Glee) with my younger students last week. They really enjoyed it and I managed to prepare a few tasks on it. Enjoy it!

Hide Your Love Away

Here's a song with clear words. The tempo is appropriate too.

MUSIC AS CULTURE

Hello fellow teachers.
In this blog, we can talk about using music in our English classes.
Music offers both language and culture.
Of course, we have to choose songs carefully.
