Imagine every class in your school, whether it be High School or Elementary School, all happily competing to see who can be the first to memorize all of Bondaygee’s Very Good Words™ study videos! As a matter of fact, it’s been done before and I can honestly tell you the results were astonishing!!
How was is it done? Easy, just start off each class with one of my Very Good Words Vocabulary Videos! They are full of energy and they only take two minutes to practice and sing. Because these essential English Words are strung together like “pearls” on a musical string, they are “piece of cake” to memorize. Now when you have every classroom all competing to be the first to memorize the words, the learning pace becomes phenomenal!
The Psychology of Learning: Putting the fun back into ESL.
Learning is naturally fun and healthy. It’s growing and that is one of the greatest feelings in life!! But what happened to your natural love for learning? Remember the eager child that you were? Always wanting to learn about this or that. Curious about everything. Right?
eaching English Through Video: Hey ESL Teachers, have you tried teaching ESL with video yet? If not, I’d like to recommend it. There are many great benefits of teaching in this way, which is why I started doing it back in 2002.

This is a fun and free musical ESL System I created back in Korea over ten years of teaching English and learning Korean Language and Culture. It’s a great way to study either English or Korean. The idea is you memorize a list of the most commonly used English/Korean words by singing them. In short time you can memorize all the words and each time you practice the song you will improve your pronunciation. Because you’re studying music, the songs leave deep, unforgettable impressions in your mind, heart and soul. I still remember all the songs and I made them 10 years ago. Check it out and see some of the student/school case study stories. I’ve used this system in public schools with awesome success! Here’s the link: System.bondaygee.com
