We love dancing along to Will et Seeka’s music.
In fact, we have enjoyed their music videos so much this year that by the time they came to visit our school, they really felt like celebrities. My students could hardly contain their excitement to see Will et Seeka live in our gym.
I started using Will et Seeka’s songs as a way to help my students learn French in a fun way. I didn’t realize that singing them together was actually going to strengthen our sense of community as a class.

Isabella Dickens loved Will & Seeka’s concerts this past week!
They are fabulous entertainers and talented educators who enriched our school community with language learning through participation, fun, and incredible student engagement.
Janet Kujit, Principal, Isabella Dickens Elementary
Toute l’école a aimé le concert de Will et Seeka!
All their songs are catchy, relevant to the children’s lives, and fun to sing. Students easily memorized the fun songs and were super excited to sing them at the concert as they all knew them from their videos.
Merci beaucoup for one of our favourite days this year!
Stacey Sveistrup, principal, Vancouver
Will et Seeka’s enthusiasm, musical ability, careful composition, and love of teaching “le français” is evident throughout their songs and videos.
I am certain that their album “Will et Seeka – Amis avec tout le monde” will be a valuable asset to any French Education program. Bravo ! Bon Succès !
