A small note *According to BPS Research Digest, as sighted in the May 2008 addition of PSYCHOLOGIES Magazine, the answer to the age old question of learning a language, "might lie in a song...The researchers concluded that we find it easier to remember words if they're set to music, partly because it's more emotionally engaging, but also because the words are structured in a way that makes it easier for us to 'segment' the information and store it in our memories".

The disadvantages of using this website are:
1) it maybe time consuming
2) not all songs are suitable for students

Recommendation
Teachers can use this website as a practice tool for listening activities in their classrooms.
