Patrick, I enjoyed your website and it is well done and informative. I read the beginners, intermediate and instructor levels (history), and they each contain the basic information, with additional details added as the levels rise. In the next few days, I'll try to have some kids check it out and let you know if they were able to find their levels easily. The graphics that indicate the various levels aren't distinct, so children may have to guess to find their level, but the beginner's level is the first, so kids who cannot read the word "beginners" are likely to start there anyway. Maybe picture of different size/age people would help. A picture of a youngster for Beginners, a picture of a middle-schooler for Intermediate, a picture of a older teenager for advanced, and a picture of an adult/teacher for Instructor. The word "easy" could be used instead of "beginners". The site looks like a great beginning in solving the problems.
