In South Korea learning to SPEAK ENGLISH is the national obsession. I worked as an "edutainer" at a "Disneyland-like" English Village in Paju. There I wrote a rap song and taught kids speaking skills through hip-hop dance and music. "Do You Understand What I'm Saying?"

    • This video should definitely be on TV. I've taught English in South Korea before and I know this kind of program is definitely useful there. Plus, this lady's talent should be seen by more people. Greenlight it!!

    • I watched this the other day and thought I greenlighted it. Anyway, here's a GL. You've got some cool footage, and it's a great story - helping to teach people with music in another country is worth sharing. Thanks. As you said, it's the bomb.

      Please check out my newest podGive 'Em Belle! when you get a sec...

    • Anything that has to do with educating others in some way, is worth being shared. Nice job in using Hip Hop to accomplish that.

      I am also trying to share an educational message with my work. Please come take a look at my pod , and let me know what you think about this reversed perspective on the world. Thanks for your time!
