This study addresses the benefits of using music in teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL). According to research, integrating songs into English lessons is one of the most effective methods for teaching a second language. This is because music enhances various aspects of learning including linguistics, cognition, culture, and motivation. Furthermore, it creates a more dynamic and engaging classroom environment making language acquisition both interesting and effective.
