Children develop their foundation of learning starting from preschool stage and continue to primary school. This paper investigates the effects of jazz chants approach to teach English Language to ten-year-old pupils who have low proficiency level in a primary school located at Chemor, Perak. They come from various backgrounds with abilities to use home languages and mother tongue. Their exposure to English Language is very limited. Due to this, the importance of this language is neglected as it is seen as impossible to master. So, to improve teacher support and student involvement, it is crucial to have suitable strategies in educational contexts that would be able to develop a positive attitude among the pupils and improve their academic performance in English Language. The objective of this paper is to propose language learning strategies for low performance ESL pupils.
