TRUE / FALSE STATEMENTS
_____ David has just finished his Master of Science course.
2. _____He studied with many international students.
3. _____He thought the students from the other countries got along on the course pretty well.
4. _____Some of the overseas students were ready to take questions or problems to tutors.
5. _____He gave some advice to international students.

JOHN: Now, David, can I get this right: You’ve just completed a Msc course on which a large proportion of the students were international students? Is that right?
DAVID: That’s it. Yes, I was in AERD – that’s the department of Agricultural Extension and Rural Development.
JOHN: And how do you think the students from the other countries got along on that course?
DAVID: Pretty well.
JOHN: What advice would you give to students, particularly international students, based on your experience as a student here?
DAVID: I think the most basic thing is to make use, full use, of the tutors and lecturers. Maybe some of the overseas students are a bit too shy to take questions or problems to tutors.
JOHN: What do you think they should do?
DAVID: I think they should find out at the beginning of the course the times at which the tutor is going to be available for tutorial appointments, and then make full use of them.
JOHN: So, any problems, they should tell the tutor as soon as possible? Let’s move on, what about the amount of reading that you have to do as a university student?
DAVID: Yes! It looks pretty daunting at first, with those long reading lists. Don’t think that the students have to read everything that’s listed. Try to find out which are the most important items on the list – ask the lecturer or tutor if necessary, and then, if your time is limited, spend it reading those books thoroughly.
JOHN: OK, that’s very helpful, David. Thank you very much.
DAVID: No, not at all.
JOHN: Now, David, can I get this right: You’ve just completed a MSc course on which a large proportion of the students were international students? Is that right?
DAVID: That’s it. Yes, I was in AERD – that’s the department of Agricultural Extension and Rural Development.
JOHN: And how do you think the students from the other countries got along on that course?
DAVID: Pretty well.
