English songs are widely enjoyed by students out of the classroom; but teachers are often unsure how to use music beyond the cliched fill-in-the-blank exercises.
+In this introductory webinar, Stephen discusses the best practices for using lyrics and songs with English learners of all proficiency levels and suggests very practical activities that target grammar, listening, and speaking.
