THE EARWOMS METHOD
1. Brain-based:
The Earworms method not only provides the words, phrases and grammar that you need for language learning, it also actively anchors them into the auditory cortex of your brain! It’s much more than language courses, it's language learning! Learn French, Spanish, English, Italian, German or Dutch listening to music lyrics.
2. Music is the key:
Using music as the medium to learn languages is not only fun, it is also effective. Firstly, music puts the learner into the optimum state of consciousness for learning different languages. Secondly, music lyrics learning allows repetition (a prerequisite for language learning). On top of that, music engages and stimulates both hemispheres of the brain, unleashing more learning potential.
3. Chunking:
Instead of language learning in terms of individual words and grammar, the Earworms approach immerses the learner in real-life dialogues and expressions with lyrics. These are broken down into bite-size chunks, practiced rhythmically with music and then reconstructed into full sentences. This gives the learner a strong sense of how real language courses are constructed and learning French, Spanish, German, Italian, English and other different languages and their vocabulary becomes easy.

Ratings and Reviews
Innovative idea and excellent customer support.
I purchased the Spanish Eu. set and was immediately impressed with the quality of the audio tracks. This program ingrains fundamental phrases in your memory using music, allowing you to speak naturally and accurately by automatically drawing upon what you’ve learned. Because of this, I think it would be best to use these tracks in conjunction with another application to learn grammatical principles.
After purchasing, despite my satisfaction with the tracks themselves, I was displeased with frequent crashing of the app. When I contacted customer support about this issue, I received a prompt reply and a complimentary download of the tracks I had purchased in .MP3 form so that I could continue learning uninterrupted while the issue is being resolved. I strongly suggest using this program, whether you try the app or buy tracks from their online website—the latter may be best until an update is released.
Outstanding Personal Customer Service
I had the best customer service experience with Stephanie from Earworms. I purchased the online version and couldn’t figure out how to get it to work on my phone. (I’m 67 and a little technology challenged lol). I sent an email not expecting much and received a personal reply from Stephanie that quickly and cordially resolved my issue. We had 3 email exchanges back and forth and I can’t tell you how refreshing it was to not only have a quick solution but handled by someone that obviously cares about doing great work and was an outstanding ambassador for the company she works for. Very impressive, prompt, professional and personal service. Outstanding!
Developer Response ,

We are committed to servicing & continually improving The Earworms Language Learning App, we're always just an email away. Feel free to contact us anytime at https://www.earwormslearning.com.
Thanks again! The earworms team
Contact Page Not Working on their website
I tried the demo and am seriously considering the purchase. But I would like to find out if it’s more effective to repeat after each phrase, or if it’s more effective to just listen carefully. I know that both options are available. I’m just curious which is typically more effective according to the research, but when I try to contact them from the website from the FAQ page, it errors out. So it would be nice to have a direct email address to reach with questions like these.
Also, besides the karaoke style lyrics, how do I access the pdf?
Thanks!
Developer Response ,
Thanks for your feedback! We had a website update on that day and the contact us page was unavailable for 22 minutes. We did receive your enquiry via our contact us page later that day and I can see my colleague Manon responded in detail on 1st Feb, apologies we missed responding on here. If you didn't receive her message your ticket number is #84720, come back to us and I'll forward her response. All the best - Maria @The EarwormsApp
