I just want to say how lovely the site is, and what a huge help it is for children to see and hear real English spoken by real English kids! I have two young learners, aged 9 and 12 and their greatest need is to simply hear standard English. Hearing it in the voices of kids like themselves, as they can on your site is I think, unique."

Michael Headley
Area of Speciality: ICT
Michael's interest in educational computing began in the early days of micro computers in schools, developing software that made the most of the limited power of those systems. English from England provides a similar challenge - how to present a valid learning experience while maintaining interest and simplicity.
