I strongly recommend [Language Transfer ](https://language transfer.org). The best language course I have ever done, and I have done many (I speak five languages, at varying levels of fluency).

They have an app, that is simple, streamlined, and very functional.

The app also has also an Introduction to Music Theory course which people say is very, very good.

Looks cool. But sadly they don't have dutch. Learning it for private reasons.

"Private reasons" makes me think of this SNL skit.

[–] AmieFromEarth@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

this SNL skit.

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

I second this. I did the Greek course and it was absolutely phenomenal.

You have a space in your URL btw.

I thought my duolingo leasons were a bit weak. Thank you so much for these!
