How can you remember your childhood to this day Why does your teacher use songs to teach you English There is a scientific reason for this.

On his blog, Dr. Ludke wrote “A listen-and-repeat (重复) singing way can help to learn foreign languages and open the door for future research in this area.”

Sometimes I think if I learned English in that way when I was young, maybe I could speak English much better.”
