Learners at an intermediate level of proficiency (TOEFL 350-450) is an ideal target, but certainly not a strict limitation.Through the 500 songs recommended, teachers can also easily provide students with listening practice by choosing a particular song to make a cloze exercise from its lyrics. Not only is this a great way to hone one’s listening skills, but it also serves to increase motivation as simply listening to music is an enjoyable experience. Students can also practice speaking by discussing what they think certain song’s lyrics mean, and also via pre-reading discussions of what students already know about a particular genre. While every learning situation is unique, it is estimated that Genres can provide enough content to fill an entire semester of a typical university course (thirty 90 minute classes). In addition to the textbook, teachers can contact the creator of GENRES to obtain a huge database of cloze questions for each of the 170 key terms taught. Furthermore, teachers can also obtain three reading comprehension questions for each of the 34 music genre chapters that can also be easily used for creating quizzes, mid-term and final exams.
