Dear Mr. Pedersen,
We have reviewed your filing and have the following
comments.
Where indicated, we think you should revise your document in
response
to these comments. If you disagree, we will consider your
explanation
as to why our comment is inapplicable or a revision is
unnecessary.
Please be as detailed as necessary in your explanation. In some
of
our comments, we may ask you to provide us with supplemental
information so we may better understand your disclosure. After
reviewing this information, we may or may not raise additional
comments.
The purpose of our review process is to assist you in your
compliance with the applicable disclosure requirements and to
enhance
the overall disclosure in your filing. We look forward to working

Risk factors, page 6
Risks associated with ST Online Corp, page 6
1. We note your response to prior comment 8 but reissue the
comment in
part. We believe that you should include a risk factor to discuss
that notes to your related parties are payable on demand, or
advise
why you believe the risk is not material. We note your discussion
in
Note 4 of your financial statements, and that as of March 31, 2005
you
have $570 of cash.
2. Despite your response to prior comment 8, it appears from your
disclosure on pages 16-18 that you do believe there are certain
risks
associated with operating a website, and from your disclosure on
pages
21-22 that you believe there may be future government regulation
of
your business. Therefore, please discuss these risks in the risk
factors section, or advise why you believe these risks are not
material at this time.
3. We note your disclosure on page 19 that you are not involved in
negotiations with any major manufacturers and suppliers and do not
intend to do so until after the offering is complete. Since
offering
products on your website is part of your plan of operation, please
consider including a risk factor to discuss the risks associated
with
obtaining contracts with manufacturers or suppliers.
Management`s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation, page 22
4. We note your response to prior comment 23 and reissue the
comment.
Please expand to disclose more quantitative results, such as the
number of lessons you have sold and the number of customers you
have
had as of the most recent date practicable.
5. We note your response to prior comment 24. Since you plan to
develop these lessons within the next twelve months, please revise
to
include in your plan of operation.
Reports, page 30
6. Please revise to reflect that the SEC`s Public Reference Room
is
located at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, DC, 20549.
Other
7. Please update your financial statements and related disclosures
as
required by Item 310(g) of Regulation S-B.
* * * * *
As appropriate, please amend the registration statement in
response to these comments. You may wish to provide us with
marked
copies of the amendment to expedite our review. Please furnish a
cover letter with your amendment that keys your responses to our
comments and provides any requested supplemental information.
Detailed cover letters greatly facilitate our review. Please
understand that we may have additional comments after reviewing
your
amendment and responses to our comments.
We urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and
adequacy of the disclosure in the filings reviewed by the staff to
be
certain that they have provided all information investors require
for
an informed decision. Since the company and its management are in
possession of all facts relating to a company`s disclosure, they
are
responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the disclosures they
have
made.
Notwithstanding our comments, in the event the company
requests
acceleration of the effective date of the pending registration
statement, it should furnish a letter, at the time of such
request,
acknowledging that
* Should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated
authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the
Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;
* The action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to
delegated authority in declaring the filing effective, does not
relieve the company from its full responsibility for the adequacy
and
accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and
* The company may not assert this action as a defense in any
proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the
federal
securities laws of the United States.
In addition, please be advised that the Division of
Enforcement
has access to all information you provide to the staff of the
Division
of Corporation Finance in connection with our review of your
filing or
in response to our comments on your filing.
We will consider a written request for acceleration of the
effective date of the registration statement as a confirmation of
the
fact that those requesting acceleration are aware of their
respective
responsibilities under the Securities Act of 1933 and the
Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 as they relate to the proposed public
offering of
the securities specified in the above registration statement. We
will
act on the request and, pursuant to delegated authority, grant
acceleration of the effective date.
We direct your attention to Rules 460 and 461 regarding
requesting acceleration of a registration statement. Please allow
adequate time after the filing of any amendment for further review
before submitting a request for acceleration. Please provide this
request at least two business days in advance of the requested
effective date.
You may contact Cari Kerr at (202) 551-3310 or Michael Fay
at

financial statements and related matters. Please contact Rolaine
