INTRODUCING
Music Maestro
Music Maestro is an online course that teaches you how to use music in your language learning and keep things fun AND functional.
HERE'S HOW WE DO IT
Beyond "just translate the lyrics"...
DISCOVER
Enjoying music with your language learning starts with finding the right music for you. Discover quick & easy ways to do just that, so you can enjoy spending time doing the other two things…
CONSUME
The best ways to use music for language learning go beyond just listening to one song on repeat & hoping for the best. You’ll learn my favourite ways to combine listening to & enjoying music with actual language learning.
CREATE
I’m not talking about making your own music! You’ll learn how to turn music into inspiration for writing & speaking practice in that language. This is the good stuff.
Everything I do to make music a fun, flexible and functional part of my languages is inside Music Maestro.
Music Maestro was created out of my desire for language learning that doesn’t feel like the boring option. For language learning that’s both a need and a want. For language learning that’s fun.
Because from my 20+ years of learning 14+ languages, I’ve learnt that the best results come from when I’m enjoying myself and making progress. Not from when I’m forcing myself through grammar exercises, nor from when I’m being way too passive with the fun stuff.
In Music Maestro, you’ll discover exactly how to make music go from ‘passive extra thing’ to core language resource.
"Great for someone like me who is not tech-savvy! The Create ideas were excellent. I'll definitely give these a go, as I seek to add variety to my learning."

MEET YOUR LANGUAGE GUIDE
Hey, I'm Lindsay.
And I’m on a mission to teach you how to learn a language. Yes, you! Music Maestro is a big part of that mission because it’s all about making language learning fun whilst still productive. Win win, huh?
I’ve recently completed my MA in Applied Linguistics and spent the past 2 decades plus of my life learning languages, which means I know a thing or two about how to do this thing.
When I’m not sharing how to learn languages on the internet, I’m trying new-to-me sports (because being a beginner is the best!), hunting down old language books, and playing with my tortoise Gonzo (who speaks a grand total of zero languages.)

Here’s the full breakdown:
1. Video Lessons (with subtitles & transcripts).
The core of Music Maestro is broken down into 3 video lessons covering everything from all 3 core areas – Discover, Consume & Create.
2. Music Maestro Reference Guide in Notion.
Everything you need to know from Music Maestro is stored in one neat package for you in Notion. That’s the workbook version of the lesson content & playlist tracklist with languages.
3. Bonus Spotify Playlist.
I’ve put together a Spotify playlist for Music Maestro folk. It includes a song to get you started on your discovery in over 100 languages! With your Music Maestro access, you get the tracklist complete with languages in Notion to help you get started.
Due to the digital nature of this product, I am unable to accept refund requests for any reason.
Should you not be satisfied with your purchase, please do reach out within 30 days and we can discuss options to rectify that. I will request detailed feedback from you to help ensure the future messaging for the product is even better.
The great thing about Music Maestro is that it’s completely digital. This means that you don’t need to wait twiddling your thumbs by the letterbox. Instead, you get instant access to everything when you buy. Yay!
Nope! You can use a free Spotify account to access any Spotify-specific related content. And even without that, no problem. You can still use everything in Music Maestro as long as you can access music somewhere – Apple Music, YouTube, vinyl, CD, cassette, MiniDisc…it’s all good.
