Dear 'mythologists',
Just want to send all of you my felicitations with this great site. I accidentally ran into your site and it provided me with all I need. Though my students are dutch-speaking, this site offers no problems. The possibilities of reading, viewing and hearing the text that is spoken, is very inventive. It is simple, goes straight to the point and offers a wide range of possibilities. I certainly add your site to my favorites. Thanks a lot!
Kind regards,
Laurens G.

What a wonderful website you've put together. My third graders have studied creation myths through your website. They are now going through the writing process writing their own creation myths. I am interested in how you did the artwork. I would love for my students to create computer generated artwork to go with their myths.
Thank you kindly,
Tanya L.

I recently watched the youtube interview with you. It was very informative. And it reiterated many reasons why I love your website.
I teach in an international school... many ESL/ EAL learners. The myths allow students to show what they know, even if they don't always have the words to express it.
thanks,

I've used your materials (the free ones) for several years--kept meaning to purchase, but procrastinated, so I'm happy to finally have full access. I teach 7th graders (12-14 year olds), and they always love the stories and discussions. Thanks for a great product!

I was really excited to find your site because I had recently decided to teach my son and a group of his friends, who are around 8 years old and home-schooled, about the creation myths of various cultures, and - BAM! I run into your beautiful site! it seems to me I will be making great use of it...

I LOVE this website. I must have taken a phenomenal amount of time to create! I've been on holiday recently in and explored Haida myths in British Columbia (awesome museum in Victoria) I wanted to use some different creation stories other than the usual and came across your website when researching. I'm about to use it with a year 4 class in the UK to support a creation stories unit in R.E. with some cross curricular geography and literacy.

Thank you very much for sharing this wonderful idea!! I loved your creation and found it very useful. I was trying to find something just like this to share with my students, when I saw one of the Myths... I think I cried when I saw my dream coming true! I teach Art History at High School level here in Mexico and I just can't wait to watch many myths with my students in class!! I will surely share this with many others!I there is anything I can help with (anything!), please let me know... count me in!!
Sincerely, Alejandra, Mexico City

Thank you. I have used a couple from the website and my students have loved them (I teach 10th grade World History). They are very excited to see the rest of the myths. You've really got a fantastic product here. Please let me know what other products you may have for classroom use.

Dear Creators,
thank you for The Big Myth which arrived yesterday. The post was much faster than expected. It has arrived long before we completed our study on Myths and will be a great help to us. It is very good and I will certainly recommend it my colleagues.
Kind regards, andre

Hi Fiona,
Thank you very much for taking care of this and responding so quickly
to my questions. I am always unsure if I am doing things correctly when it comes to computer/techie kind of things! My kids will be very excited to learn that we can explore some new myths today. The Big Myth website has helped to make them very excited about history even to the point of saying, "When can we do history again, mom." Thanks again for your time.

Hi there,
I wanted to let you know that I think your site The Big Myth is incredible! It is a teacher's dream! It is really engaging for the students and allows them to work the information out on their own instead of me trying to force feed them. I am really excited to use the site further.
Cheers,

Hello!
I am a high school English teacher in Dayton, Ohio (USA). I want to tell you how much I love your website and what's so good about it! The teacher whose room is next door to me found this site. We have both been doing a project in which students must create their own creation myths. We use your site as a basis for the project. Students read several different myths, do a compare & contrast chart, then create their own creation stories. The students absolutely love it! They are completely taken in by the Flash animation, and students who struggle with reading appreciate the verbal version as well. This is a wonderful site. Thank you for all of your hard work in creating it!

Thanks for such a timely response. You should be working for all the companies (and there are thousands) for whom customer service is a meaningless phrase. I am blown away by your attention to my needs. Thanks again!!!

I received the CD-Rom. It's wonderful. I'm sure my students will enjoy this journey through cultures immensely. I mirror much of the same issues, topics, and overall educational perspective in all my classes.
Thanks.

hi,
i would like to thank you for publishing the creation myths produced by the children of baines endowed primary school, blackpool, england. the children really enjoyed the myths from your site, and these were a great inspiration for their work. they were absolutely thrilled to see their work published. in addition, the inspectors looking at our school at the time were very impressed with the use of your website, and also with the work the children produced. i hope to use this site next year with another group of children, and hopefully get their work published,
thanks again,
