| SPEAKER AND ADVOCATE OF
TEACHING ENGLISH THROUGH MUSIC Dr. Medina has energized hundreds of teachers and motivated them to make greater use of music in their second language classrooms. Her pioneering research on the effect of music upon second language acquisition together with her years of experience using music to instruct English to all ages and levels have made her an expert on the topic. Increasingly,
teachers are searching for highly effective
instructional strategies which will promote
second language acquisition in their classrooms.
Music offers a powerful vehicle which both
motivates second language learners and boosts the
acquisition process. Yet, frequently music
is used in the language classrooms without making
full use of its potential. Given this, what
can teachers do to maximize the effects of music
on second language learners? Stated
differently, what instructional strategies will
accelerate the language acquisition process
through music? This is the focus of Dr.
Medina's workshops. HOW
