Dear Teacher,
In recent weeks there have been four new Tune publications:
– Speak Up: as well as the monthly song explanation column, the November issue features a four-page article on the Top 10 Irish Songs to Learn English.
– TEYLT Worldwide: Issue 2 of this YLTSIG publication features twelve micro-articles spotlighting “Music in ELT”, including my Baby Shark revisited.
– English Kaleidoscope: I contributed A look at the word kaleidoscope in pop music to the first issue of this new innovative quarterly magazine, published by regular Tune contributor Roy Boardman.
You can access all articles here.

I am excited about beginning the 2024-2025 Tune Into English Roadshow tour in Sicily this month, with dates also in Lombardy. I would be delighted to come to your school this year – you can see full details of the show here.
