Hi Craig,
Wow, great description of the site! Jason spoke quite quickly but he was truly interested in ideas and opportunities for learning languages. A businessman but still easy-going.
I know, I’m repeating myself but I just want to say thanks, thanks and thanks 🙂
Cheers,
Elisa
Thanks Elisa. Yes, Jason did speak quite quickly. Perhaps I should label this interview ‘upper intermediate/advanced’!
