Here in Guam we have the English Language Institute, a small college associated with the University of Guam. The head of the ELI wants to talk to me about including music in her program and hiring me to do it. We will be talking after Christmas and probably after New Year's Day.

ELI teaches English to mostly Asian students. They get Students from Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Viet Nam, China, and others. The students are usually young, college age kids with a few older people mixed into the classes. Generally they have some knowledge of English when they start and are fairly fluent when they finish.

I figure there are plenty of Mudcats out there with experience in teaching and I know there is a huge knowledge database out there in music. I am looking for ideas on how to use music to teach English and what songs might be good to include. I am looking for any ideas, good, bad, or indifferent.
