Just kidding! But I am serious about that work though. Here I have attached a Jekyll and Hyde Video Project that I worked on for a week. Download it and watch it at home, for this is going to be in our next class activity.

Music can be a very effective method of learning English. In fact, it is often used as a way of improving comprehension. The best way to learn though, is to get the lyrics (words) to the songs you are listening to and try to read them as the artist sings. There are several good internet sites where one can find the words for most songs. This way you can practice your listening and reading at the same time. And if you like to sing, fine.
music can stimulate learning
Here are some song lyrics you can use to start off. They have clear, fun and usually focus on a specific form of grammar.
Happy learning kids!
Raise Your Glass by Pink
Just The Way You Are by Bruno Mars
pair your favorite song with your revision, and enjoy learning!

Welcome to SpeakUp!
As an English teacher-to-be, it is my responsibility to understand the learning patterns of my students. Most teenagers today can relate themselves to music, music videos, movies and peer culture. Thus, this blog is created to fulfil the learning needs of students in learning English; specifically speaking skills.
Apart from that, this blog also acts as an interacton between teacher and students in learning English. You may find all updates on my lessons, tutorial and homework in my blog.
Have a nice day and thanks for your support!
