Hi. Uh, haven't we met before? You look so familiar.
Yeah. We met on campus last week, [Yeah!] and you asked me the same question.
Oh, oh really? I'm really sorry, but I'm terrible with names. But, but, but... Let me guess. It's Sherry, right?
No, but you got the first letter right.
I know, I know. It's on the tip of my tongue. Wait. Uh, Sandy, Susan. [Nope. So, was I that memorable?] Wait, wait. It's Sharon.
You got it... and only on the fourth try.
So, well, Sh..., I mean Sharon. How are you?
Not bad. And what was your name?
It's Ben, but everyone calls me B.J. And, uh, what do you do, Sh... Sharon?
I'm a graduate student majoring in TESL.
Uh, TESL... What's that?
It stands for teaching English as a second language. I want to teach English to non-native speakers overseas.
Oh, yeah. I'm pretty good at that English grammar. You know, verbs and adjectives, and uh... Hey, that's sound really exciting. And do you need some type of specific degree or experience to do that? I mean could I do something like that?
Well, most employers overseas are looking for someone who has at least a Bachelor's degree and one or two years of experience. [Oh!] And what do you do? Are you a student on campus?
Yeah, but, uh... I guess I'm mulling over the idea of going into accounting or international business, but I guess I'm leaning now towards a degree in marketing.
Oh, uh,... Well, I have to run. I have a class in ten minutes.
Oh, okay. And, uh, by the way, there's this, uh, dance on campus at the student center tonight, and I was wondering if you'd... you know... like to come along.
Oh really? Well, perhaps...
