Towns

Q: Tell me why you like the city
where you live.
A: I currently live in Berlin. I like it because it’s a big city with many
things to do, and it has people from all over the world.
Part
2: Role Play Situations
Situation
1: Changing the Topic of a Project
The student asked the tutor about
changing the topic of a project because the original topic was difficult. After
discussion, the tutor allowed the change as long as the student could complete
it before the deadline.
Situation
2: Internet Problems in Student Residence
The student reported internet
problems in the residence. The technician confirmed that several residents had
the same issue and arranged to visit the room during the weekend to fix the
connection.
Part
3: Reading Passage and Discussion
The student was asked to read a
short passage about plastic pollution:
“In the 19th century, the invention
of man-made plastic was held as a breakthrough… today, however, attitudes have
changed as plastic has become a major source of pollution.”
Follow-up Question:
Do you think there are advantages to producing plastic today?
- Yes, because plastic is cheap, unbreakable, and widely
used. Although it harms the environment, recycling allows us to reuse it.
Part
4: Undergraduate Attitudes to Jobs
The student discussed a chart
showing how first-year, second year, and final-year undergraduates view job
priorities differently:
- Salary & Benefits: Final-year students value these the most.
- Flexible Hours & Career Opportunities: Also, more important for final-year students.
- Company Size & Values: First-year students focus more on these aspects
compared to final-year students.
Follow-up Question:
Do students’ ideas change during their three years of study?
- Yes. First-year students care more about company size
and culture, while final-year students prioritize salary and benefits,
reflecting real-world expectations.
