- Nowadays, the development of foreign languages is increasing especially English. Teaching using English Song is one of techniques that can be used for teaching and learning process. Many teachers use English song as a stimulus for teaching English to young learners, either to begin or close the learning proses. This thesis focused on English songs used in teaching EYL (English for Young Learners) in University of Muhammadiyah Malang with three purposes. The purposes can be stated as: (1) To describe the implementation of teaching by songs in English for Young Learner class, (2) To investigate the problem in using English songs to teach young learners, and (3) To find out the solution encountered in using English songs to teach young learners. This research employed descriptive approach because the researcher described the implementation of English song in teaching EYL in University of Muhammadiyah Malang. The data were obtained from three student teachers out of ten student teachers in the grade one at University of Muhammadiyah Malang. The researcher conducted observation and interview to collect the data. The findings revealed that there were five steps in using English song, as follows: (1) Presenting the video in the LCD three times to make the students familiar with the song; (2) Instructing the students to watch and listen to the music video; (3) Giving examples to the students about the movement of the song without showing the video to make the students focus on the teacher; (4) Ordering the students to sing the song together; and (5) Playing a game based on the song to improve students' vocabulary. Furthermore, the use of English songs in teaching young learners had three problems, as follows: (1) The students were too shy and passive in the class; (2) Several students were not familiar with the meaning of vocabularies that caused difficulties in singing and dancing, and (3) The students had difficulties in pronouncing some of the vocabularies. In order to solve the problems, the researcher found several ways, as follows: (1) Assisting the students personally; (2) Changing the difficult song and using the easier one; and (3) Writing difficult vocabulary with its pronunciation followed by the movement of the song.
