Jose Luis Orozco Ramos is a musician who is promoting bilingual education in the United States through popular songs and more than 1,000 school districts are using his method to help immigrant students.

“More than ever it involves using the traditions that come from centuries of songs, games, lullabies, tongue-twisters, rhymes,” Orozco told Efe.

“All these are indispensable instruments for educating children. Besides teaching them the language, we’re teaching them the culture,” he said.
