you look better today. How did your test go?
much better than it did yesterday.
did you pass?
I not only passed my test, but I aced it! I'm so happy!
you should be. You worked really hard last night preparing for it.
thanks for helping me with it. If you hadn't encouraged me to do my best, I wouldn't have ever been able to pass.
you don't have to thank me. It's just a part of my job as your counsellor.
did you always do well at school?
no, in fact, I was terrible at taking exams.
really?
sure, but my teachers always encouraged me to do the best that I could and that helped me a lot. When are your final exams?
I'll get my finals in two months.
when do you plan on studying for those exams?
most students just cram the night forehead.
do you think that's a good idea?
no, I think I should study a little bit at a time, starting a few weeks before the exam.
that sounds like a good idea. What are you going to do if you have any questions while you're studying?
I'll go and talk to my professor or a learning support assistant.
