transform into industries of music, television and news. And we agree that
education would be the next, especially English teaching.
W: There are many other web products in English teaching. How could your
English products stand out?

focusing on the 14 -25 age group.

pronounce vocabularies and sentences. Do you use the same way?
M: Not only that. Our users can hear and see exactly how words and phrases
are used and pronounced in the movies and music videos on the site. By playing
those over and over, users can also get used to many very different accents in
English and varying speech and speech delivery.
W: Where do you see yourselves three years from now?
M: We hope to be present in Asia in a very big way. We are self-financed, so
we don't have pressures from investors for fulfilling a short-term objective. We
know it will take time, but we will do everything to get there.
