How To Be More Fluent In English Through Rap
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Jason Levine (also known as "Fluency MC") combines learning English with rap, and his English 'shows' in schools help students become more confident and more fluent in English.
In this episode, he shares why he started writing songs to help English students in New York with the TOEFL test.
Find out:
- how rhythm and rhyme can help you to learn English (and why our brains love music so much!)
- why rap is one of the best music types for learning English
- why you don't need to be able to sing!
As a special bonus, Jason also demonstrates part of his song "Get A Life". How many collocations with "get" did you hear?
