Some of the musical examples many have offensive language within the lyrics. It is the teacher/lecturer’s responsibility to monitor and check before engaging with learners. We have tried to ensure that music examples are suitable for all classrooms, but this really depends on the learning environment and age range of your learners. Thank you for understanding!
