Why should we use songs?

Authentic songs are one of the best ways of teaching a foreign language. Students are generally highly motivated and their attitude is usually positive. As a consequence, they will get involved more easily.
Authentic songs can help the students develop the four skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking) and they are a good example of the language in use, which is fundamental for the development of the learning process.
In short, authentic songs are a useful resource for the EFL teacher. Make use of this powerful tool; it is not so hard to put into practice and it turns out to be really effective as students learn while having fun.
