TRANSCRIPT:

Hi Bob the Canadian here. Music can be a great way to learn English and to practice English. In this video I’ll give you my ten tips for using music to help you learn English.

Hi, welcome to this video, if this is your first time here don’t forget to click the red subscribe button below and at some point during the video give me a thumbs up if this video is helping you learn English.

Well in this video we’re going to talk about music videos and how you can use them to help improve your English. I’m gonna give you ten tips, ten things that I learned about using music to learn a language while I was learning to speak French. But they’ll all work for you as you learn English. So let’s take a look at them.

Number one. Pick a song that you really like.

It doesn’t have to be a song where you know all the words. It should be a song that speaks to you, that means something to you, a song maybe that has a catchy beat. Because remember repetition is the key to language learning. So pick a song that you’re going to be able to listen to over and over and over again. Pick something that you like.

Number two. You should pick a song that tells a story.

If you pick a song that tells a story, it will help you learn things that you’ll be able to use in everyday English conversations. If you pick a song that tells a story it will help you learn new vocabulary and it will be easier to remember because you’ll be able to connect the new words, the new vocabulary, to the story. And if you pick a song that tells a story, it will simply be easier to remember because you’ll be learning new words in context. You’ll be learning new words as part of the story. So number two, pick a song that tells a story.

Number three. Print out the lyrics, that’s the words to the song, on paper.

I know it’s easier to just read them on your computer, but you should print out the words of the song on paper so that you can attack the vocabulary. Underline all of the words that you don’t know, circle all of the words that you don’t know, or highlight all of the words that you don’t know.
