Just wondering, do your school uses this song to help you with remembering countries? Things are generally easier to remember if they converted to a song, which is why we are taught the alphabets song and the weekday song when we were kids.

I am referring to this song:
 
I don't come from this part of the world but the gist of the argument applies. Rhythms especially those with catchy tones and moods etch powerfully into the subconscious of the learners and recollection is easier. The gap existing in the teaching profession has mostly to do with the fact that learners do not enjoy what they are doing and consider it to be a mundane task.
 
Wow, I just spent like 15 minutes on youtube looking at he other videos for the states, and one was for the periodic table. I was trapped like I was hypnotized, I was forced to sit there and watch each video all the way through.

Those guys voices are annoying, but it was interesting. I don't see how anyone could remember the last parts when they start going fast with those complex words.
 
It's all good and well remembering the names of the countries but it would be nice if they used a map and highlighted the countries as they went through them. This way they students would be able to localize the countries.
