@_Lena Are you following this topic since a long time ago?

By the time I discovered it it wasn't really active (?) but it is great to speak in English like this don't you think?

 

[drou_drou]

@_Lena I totally agree with you!! It's a good way to train to speak English I must admit that I don't have several occasions to speak English, unfortunately

 

[_Lena]

@drou_drou Yes, me neither only watching series & movies in English but it's not as effective as regular conversations with an English speaker... Moreover English classes in my school are useless since it's not pushed as far as it should be (in my opinion)

 

[drou_drou]

@_Lena I think watching series & movies is a good way to improve!!
What kind of studies do you make?

 

[_Lena]

@drou_drou Yes, and songs too - I began learning English when I was 11 with Justin Bieber's hits, actually I learned a lot thanks to him

I'm still in high school, in a Terminale S and you?

 

[drou_drou]

@_Lena Thanks to Justin Bieber, you began learning English I don't know his songs very well except "Baby"
I didn't learn English with him, but I learnt a few words of German with Tokyo Hotel, shame on me...
I am in Master 2 (I don't know how to say ^^') in a Business School, and I am an apprentice

 

[_Lena]

@drou_drou Yes :3 Ah ok, well it's the most known but not the only one but I have to admit you probably have to be a young teenager to like his songs...

How did you learn English? :3
I tried to improve German with Rammstein but it never succeed really...

Ah ok :3 what do you want to do next?

Justin Bieber, Tokio Hotel how great is your discussion Glad to meet youu
I used to listen over and over some Justin's song you especially "Baby", younger

The funny thing with music is when you've known this song for years and you "update" your knowledge of the lyrics each time you listen to it again after a break, because your English improved and you understand it a little better. I loved Linkin Park in middle school - like many middle schoolers - and even if I'm not much of a fan anymore I still listen to some of their songs once in a while. And each time I did it I had that "...oh" moment when I realized the lyrics are actually pretty far from what I thought they were

Oh my God Baby

Music is a great way to improve your English or any other foreign language.

The Spice Girls have had a great impact on my childhood and my decision to become an English teacher
As a kid I would read the lyrics and sing, I didn't understand everything but I guess it helped me a lot when I started English classes at primary school, because I was already used to the English accent...

Yes it is. I didn't really improve my accent with them, but I learned a considerable number of words (well sometimes not that proper ones but still)
I think that a great way to improve the accent remains in listening and watching series and movies!
But of course the best way of speaking English is going to an england country as we said...

Oh yes, especially when you've been listening to rap music all along and you just loved theses amazing voices that seem so engaged and them it comes that suddenly you understand what they say, and the world is not the same anymore
