Why is the woman interested in Spain?
[Student (female)] Hi, [Professor] Cho.
[Advisor (mate)] Hello, Angeline. Come on in. Have a seat.
[Student] Thanks.
[Advisor] Q1 When you made your appointment, you mentioned that you wanted to
talk about the possibility of studying abroad?
[Student] That’s right.That’s why I’m here. I just need some general information about the
whole process.
[Advisor] OK. That’s great. Whenever students tell me they want to study abroad, I do
everything I can to encourage it. For this time in your life, I just think it’s a
really valuable experience. I mean, sometimes people don’t have this kind of
opportunity again.
[Student] Yeah--that’s why I want to do it. 1 really don’t want to miss the chance to live
and study in another country. Besides that, I think it’ll help me with my major.
[Advisor] What did you declare as your major? International law? I’ve forgotten what you
decided.
[Student] Yeah, I almost went with international law, but I ended up settling on Spanish.
[Advisor] So, may I assume you want to study in a Spanish-speaking country?
[Student] Right.
[Advisor] Oh yes, well in that case, I’m sure that studying abroad will really help you
become more proficient in the language. It’ll certainly be an asset for you as a
Spanish major.
[Student] Yeah. One of my roommates studied in Mexico last semester, and she came
back practically fluent in Spanish. I was so impressed by the amount she, um,
learned while she was living abroad.That’s part of the reason I want to go abroad.
[Advisor] So, are you interested in studying in Mexico as well?
[Student] Q2 Actually, I’d rather go to Spain. My family is originally from there...so I’ve
always had an interest in the country and culture,
[Advisor] Well, that’s certainly a possibility. In fact, there’re tons of study-abroad programs
based in Spain. Q5 Do you have any ideas about what you want to
get out of your experience?
[Student] [unsure of what the man means] Um, uh...what...can you give me an example?
[Advisor] Welt, what kind of language skills do you have at the moment and where do
you want them to be by the end of your experience? Um, do you want to live in
a dorm? With a local family? How long do you want to spend abroad?
[Student] Well, my Spanish skills are intermediate, I’d say. I could probably get by taking
classes in Spanish...but I’d definitely have some difficulties. Q3 I’m looking for
a relatively structured program. One that offers housing with other exchange
students. Preferably in a alarm, I guess. I want to have my own space. And I think
that spending one semester abroad would fit best into my schedule. If [ want to
go abroad again, I could always do that later on...in my junior or senior year.
[Advisor] OK. Good. Sounds like you have some specific ideas about what you’re looking
for. Q3 Let me just point out that while there’re some advantages to a
program like that, there’re also some disadvantages, If you live in a dorm with
other exchange students, you’ll be somewhat isolated from people in the local
culture, Which may make it more difficult to really learn the language.
[Student] [considering the idea] Yeah...I could see how that might happen.
[Advisor] That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do a program like that, but it’s just something
to consider. Besides, if you go into the situation determined to learn the
language, there’re other ways you can meet locals and participate in the culture.
[Student] Maybe I should think about it more before I decide. Do you think I could look at
a few brochures for some of the programs? I’d like to read up on my options. I
thought I knew what I wanted, but maybe I shouldn’t rule out any possibilities at
this point.
[Advisor] Sure. Q4 Let me put together a folder with information about a variety of
programs based in Spain. I can have that for you by tomorrow, if you want
to drop by then. And later, we can talk more about the general study-abroad
requirements...like getting a letter of approval from a professor in your
language department.
[Student] Q4 OK, that sounds great. I’ll stop by tomorrow.Thanks a lot for your help!
[Advisor] You bet.
