6/10 Learning through musicTo celebrate 10 years of the English with Kirsty podcast, I’m creating a 10-part series to celebrate 10 different forms that learning can take.Part six of the series is about learning through music and how we can encorporate music into our language learning journeys.Who would be a good person to talk with me about this? It had to be someone who is not only passionate about music, but who could bring together mucic and language learning with real-life experiences and a story that demonstrates how powerful this combination can be! So I invited my friend Rita Prazeres Gonçalves back to do another episode with me.We talked about – among other things:🗣 Rita’s story and the relationship between her love of music and her interest in learning English🗣 How we can use music to improve our language skills – in terms of vocabulary, pronunciation, and deepening our understanding of the language🗣 How doing our own transcriptions can be a valuable way to learn (listening comprehension, spelling, conjugating verbs etc)🗣 How we can make informed choices about which types of music to work with🗣 Getting to know different parts of our personalities in our different languagesLet us know if you would be interested in a workshop to explore this topic further.#Are there any songs in your additional languages that have helped you in some way or that are important to you?Find out more on the show notes page: https://englishwithkirsty.com/podcast/episode282/And check out Rita's podcast, The Language Worker,  here: https://www.youtube.com/@thelanguageworker1616
