Help me construct my letter?

Below is what I wrote, trying to get my neice to understand my bad russian...actually this is my 2nd letter. I won't show you the first, it was really bad...

If you wall help me, it will additionally teach me many words and phrases...everytime I get help, it really helps me learn.

Anyway, here is what I'm trying to communicate with her, which is that, I want her to record 5 minutes of very simple conversation and then e-mail it to me. I'm just going to release what she sends me as a podcast.

So if you can think of the simplest way you would word such a letter, in addition to correcting my mistakes....you all would rule! thanks

Ты не поняла меня, мой русский очень плохой и в нем есть много ошибок.
Я знаю, что ты понимаешь мой английский лучше, но упрямый старик я.

1. Напиши простую историю.
2. говори медленно - Record. 5 минут
3. отправь

Я попробую делать пример для тебя.

That is sort of what I would say, although I don't know if you would say мой русский плохой, maybe you need a noun in there...

научу, me thinks?

Depends, does he mean to learn or to start? I thought he said he was going to start whatever they talked about in the previous letter...

Isn't he saying

OK. I'll start.

That is what I thought. But what is he starting? Hasn't he already started? :wink:

мой русский очень плохой is not that bad but я говорю по-русски очень плохо would be better.

I think he made a recording for her as en example. If so, then я попробовал сделать (or записать) пример.

I would change the word order here

Я знаю, что мой английский ты бы поняла лучше, но я упрямый старик.

2. сделай 5-минутную запись - говори медленно

Hey thanks, sorry I didn't check back right away.

yes, I was saying 'OK, I'll start'

also, I know its hard to figure out why, because I didn't show you all the letters...but, where that came from is she told me to 'tell her exactly what I wanted.'

first...I blather on about my bad russian, then I separate that and say 'OK, I'll start'

thanks for correcting my russian...I appreciate it, because only in this way do I finally learn how to do it right...it seems if I just study, I don't remember, but if I make a bunch of mistakes, I remember next time...
