Welcome to Country
Music University
A fun and engaging way to learn English
through Country Music
About
My name is Michael Luchtan, and I have written and performed Country music internationally since starting outside of Athens, Georgia over twenty years ago. I can help you to learn English with a useful and captivating approach that used Country music to teach English. Whether you're a fan of country music or just looking to improve your English language skills, this course offers a unique way to learn and grow.

Enhance your English learning with a twist
In classes at CMU, students sing together to create a shared experience, allowing them to actively participate without fear of failure. The teacher and the music handle most of the cognitive effort, so students can focus on enjoying the process.
How it works
All levels are welcome and also flexible hours to accommodate your schedule. We'll explore country music themes and artists to enhance language skills and using them as a foundation to work key aspects of language learning. Discover our music playlist!

I'm flexible when it comes to scheduling the class, so we can choose a time that works best for both of us. We can form classes or schedule one on one classes.
All levels welcome
Playing with a real musician is different than singing along to a recording. We can slow down, speed up, loop difficult phrases, and custom tailor classes for every learner.
Fun time
CMU classes are fun and singing can be cathartic. The best part of teaching is that I get the opportunity to sing with and accompany passionate students and share with them my love for the great singers, songwriters, and songs of country music.
Engaging lessons
Learning through music is the most effective way to absorb new language material. Each lesson is a memorable journey of discovery, and I love to see that moment of understanding when a fellow lifelong fan of country music untangles the deeper meaning of a favorite song.
