How can you remember a song from your childhood(童年)to this day?Why does your teacher use songs to teach you English?There is a scientific reason(科学原因)for this.
Researchers(研究者)are studying the relationship (关系)between music and remembering a foreign language. "Singing could be a new way of learning,especially(尤其是)for a foreign language.The brain(脑)likes to remember things in a catchy and relaxing way.For example,children can remember difficult words quickly when they are in a song," said Dr.Karen Ludke.If children find it difficult to learn foreign languages,this new way may help.On his blog,Dr.Ludke wrote "A listen-and-repeat(重复)singing way can help to learn foreign languages and open the door for future research in this area."
Many language teachers know the importance of music and they often use it in teaching and learning.Hua Zhuying,a teacher at a Chinese language school in Washington DC,likes using songs in teaching Chinese.She said, "I use music all the time to teach children Chinese.For little children,we usually use the music.Not only does it work,but it is fun for children.Sometimes I think if I learned English that way when I was young,maybe I could speak English much better."
Our brain likes music in learning languages,especially for remembering.If you are still having problems in learning a language,why not try singing it out?
