I just finished adding a special page to my Destination English website. I had been teaching teenagers these last few summers in Brighton, UK. Every Friday, we would have a kind of farewell concert in the main hall as students would have to say goodbye to their friends who were leaving.
We spent the week teaching classic songs like; Yesterday, Hey Jude by the Beatles, as well as modern pop songs. Then the class would perform in front of the whole school. Above is a list of some of the other covers I've done. I'm planning to teach these songs as part of TELF. I think we need other ways of engaging students through music.
I've made a page for my music and I'd like to share that with you. I've made special efforts to write subtitles in English and sync them. On YouTube there is a great feature on the settings button at the bottom of the player (It allows you to change the quality and speed of the video/audio). A fantastic tool for learners of English or anyone that's not native.
I will be adapting the content and adding notes and explanations of the useful expressions that I use.
