The Role of Music in Second Language Learning: A Vietnamese Perspective

According to Mark Huy Lê, Though music has been an important aspect of school culture, its role in language learning has not received great attention in educational research. The research on the role of music in second language learning is still at an embryonic stage. The general assumption is that music enhances a learning environment due to its affective power. A qualitative study was conducted in Vietnam to examine how music was perceived by Vietnamese second language educators and students. The focus was on its role in second language learning. The study reveals interesting insights about the permeation of music in various extracurriculum activities and learning experiences of tertiary students of English. Pedagogically, English music was highly valued by teachers and students of English in teaching speaking, listening, reading and writing. It is argued that music, particularly songs, is an encoding of cultural values and ideology which need to be viewed critically if foreign music is used in teaching a second language in Vietnam.
