Feedback on Playlists & Language-learning materials
"I took Desta's Languages Through Music for 10 sessions this summer and the results were amazing. I went from barely being able to comprehend French to being conversational within that period. She selected each song with the right vocabulary for my level and her teaching style was patient, yet robust. I'll absolutely recommend to anyone trying to learn a new language.”
B. BAZAWULE · GRAMMY-WINNING RAPPER , COMPOSER & FILM DIRECTOR BURIAL OF KOJO/BLACK IS KING/ THE COLOR PURPLE
“Great pioneering idea, fantastic upbeat teacher, nice visuals and graphic design, amazing musical taste, knowledge, and genuine positive vibes. I think the best things in life always come out of amalgamations, and this one is perfect for culture lovers. A reminder of what makes us beautifully human. Why should learning be anything different from that? Nothing but a big up!”

"Languages through Music kickstarted my French learning by hijacking my love of music.”
