English as a Singing Language
1 Favorite
Experienced ESL teachers, Ece and Heather, know that learning any language can be a challenge but can be more enjoyable when you add music. By using a wide variety of music types from different time periods, our goal is to make learning English easy and fun by singing your way to better English proficiency. In each episode, we will discuss the artist, the type of music, key vocabulary, and a specific language focus like pronunciation or grammar. You do not have to be a singing superstar to enjoy this podcast. We look forward to sharing our love of language learning and music with you!
