Using Songs in Teaching English for Young Learners

Abstract

Nowadays, in every school, English is taught as one of the main subjects. Teaching young learners is not the same as teaching adults since children learn in their own unique way. Because children really like playing and having fun, the learning and
teaching process should be adapted to their personalities. Music is one of the types of entertaining activities for them, and songs are the most popular form of music that children are familiar with. Songs are very crucial in the development of young children
who are learning a second language. Through this paper, the writers want to show that with the help of songs, children may improve their language abilities such as speaking, listening, and writing.
