Play and Learn at The Same Time!!!

   Nowadays we have more opportunities in order to achieve success in our study, because there are a large number of the resources for Independent Learning. You need to understand that teachers give you only a small part of the knowledge and your education depends on you and your affords. Independent Learning is absolutely free for everyone and it has a simple action plan. You just need to choose the most appropriate way to learn and to do analysis of you work. There are lots of programs of Independent Learning on any topics. Learning English is no exception, because more and more people begin to study English all over the world.

   I want to introduce you to the great way to learn English outside the class – Lyrics Training. And  I will describe my experience of using Lyrics Training. First of all it is very easy to use. You need to go to this website  and chose the language which you learn. If you want you can sign up. As for me I didn’t sign up, because it wasn’t necessary. Then type the name of your favorite song in English in the search string. There are a huge number of songs of different time and singers. After that there will be the video for this song from YouTube. Then choose your level. There are 4 levels: beginner, intermediate, advanced, expert. Then start to play this game. You just need to complete the lyrics as fast as possible by typing the missing words in the gabs. If you don’t make out any word or you don’t have enough time to type, the music will stop and start playing again. But time and number of attempts are limited. Also you can choose the game mode where there are not missing words and you can sing just like karaoke. After the video you can see the best results.

    Lyrics Training is one of the language learning websites, which will never bore you. On the one hand it is a game, but on the other hand it is a very useful exercise to develop your English. It’s very interesting comprehension game in which you play and learn English at the same. I liked that there were different levels. It means that everyone who have a basic knowledge of English can play and develop the comprehension of English and spelling. Also it is great that there is a big collection of music. But I think it would be better if after each song there will be some sort of analysis and recommendations to player. And sometimes the videos were slow to load. In general, I have positive impressions of this site. And I will use it in my study as additional activity.
