Sample Response

Now listen to a sample response. How does it differ from your response? Write down any differences in information or phrasing.

The man wants to ask his professor questions about his lab report.

However, he has class during the professor’s office hours. The woman suggests that he either make an appointment to talk with the professor another time or email the professor his questions.

I think he should schedule an appointment with this professor outside of office hours. His professor is probably aware that her students may have class during her regular office hours.

I am sure she would be willing to accommodate those students. Also, by meeting with his professor in person rather than through email, the man can fully explain what he is having trouble with.

He will be able to work directly with his professor to come up with possible solutions.
