Learn English with Music
Are you bored with reading, grammar and writing? Would you like to learn English with music, but not sure how? Here you will be able to watch music videos accompanied by the lyrics, so that you and listen to the song, associate images and read along. Actually turning on the radio or putting on an English Music CD might just be one of the best ways to retain or remember vocabulary and grammar that you hear in the lyrics. According to BPS Research Digest, as sighted in the May 2008 addition of PSYCHOLOGIES Magazine, the answer to the age old question of learning a language, "might lie in a song... The researchers concluded that we find it easier to remember words if they're set to music, partly because it's more emotionally engaging, but also because the words are structured in a way that makes it easier for us to 'segment' the information and store it in our memories". So turn up your speakers or put on your headphones and prepare to listen your way to better English. Also, by combining the benefits of music with reading the lyrics simultaneous you will be able to learn English faster. The songs I have included are clear, fun and usually focus on a specific form of grammar. Happy Listening! Diana :)
