      Dear Sir/ Madam,

      I have created a web page which is an audio language tutoring program. I
      believe that the interface which I have used is slightly better than the
      standard point-and-click interface. 

      The URL of the page is 
      http://www.geocities.com/matth3wbishop/

      The 'flash' based interface which you use in  you 'spanish steps' course is
      also quite effective, but I feel that the page
      I have created is superior
      in some aspects (although
      definitely inferior in many others).

      Any assistance or suggestions which you could provide to help me
      to develope this system would be appreciated.
      For example I think it would be extremely useful to include short stories
      and other audio texts in order to keep the interest of the student.

      yours sincerely
      matthew bishop

      Dear Matthew

      Thank you for your email and for information on your site. 
      Unfortunately we
      can't provide any assistance in developing the system. There are other
      organisations, such as the Association for Language Learning, who may 
      be
      able to put you in contact with more appropriate sources. The link to 
      their
      website is included below.

      with kind regards
      BBCi Languages
