Use iTunes. Or iTunes for Windows.

Hi Joanna,
Have you adjusted the settings in iTunes? Under Preferences > Importing
Then Import Using: WAV Encoder
Setting: Custom
Then change the Sampling rate to either 8,11, or 22kHz ( 8 being the lowest/smallest filesize you can get. You'll have to experiment to know which is the ok quality/smallest filesize.)
Sampling size: 16bit
Channels: Mono
Also you can also use Quicktime Pro, and export it with the same settings. Either app will do.
