RESEARCH OVERVIEW

Abstract

The practical use of songs in ELT is not a new technique, however music, songs are considered as a powerful tool in teaching a foreign language. It is known that the more sense organs are involved in the educational process, the more effective music in the lesson inspires, relaxes, captivates, and adjusts to a subtle but strong wave of perception. In addition, music develops memory and thinking as well.  In this article, we will discuss the mechanisms of the influence of music, songs on the motivation of students, improving the quality of mastering new educational material, developing speech skills, creative and cognitive abilities, as well as reducing emotional tension in the process of teaching a foreign language.
