ICT's Tool Review: Lyrics Training







Lyrics Training is a web page that you can use in your classrooms, as a creative way to improve in vocabulary, writing and listening skills, in English or any language you want to learn. It uses popular songs to motivate students to get interested in the language acquisition learning. 


      Lyrics Training is a relevant tool because it  is a very simple way to make students to get involved with the English class. The music rankings gets updated almost every day, so is this tool, with the help of its participants. 

      Also, through music, you can make your students to practice listening (in the moment they are trying to listen to the words), writing (when they have to put the correct words in the blank spaces), and also vocabulary because, when they do not know a word, they can look for it. 

      The best part is that it is not aimed just for one age group. It has songs for teenagers, like Ed Sheeran or Ariana Grande who are very popular artists; and songs for children, like "Let It Go" from Frozen. 

      The only limitations I can see about using this particular tool in the classroom is that, sometimes, the school does not have a good internet connection (or even any), so we could not use it comfortably. In any other case, this is a perfect tool to keep your students motivated.

  1. I must say I really love Lyrics Training. It is a brilliant idea that creates the opportunity to make students to face real English. Besides that, this platform uses very nice and amazing hits from YouTube. Since students start working with music and lyrics, they show a motivation. Besides, Lyrics Training is a gamify experience since you have "score" for each song you play, the difficulty levels and the variety of singers and amazing songs it's just perfect to catch student's attention.
