M: Hi there, Kate. Come in. How are you today?
F: Fine, thanks.
M: Well, as I explained on the phone, I'm a Counsellor here at the Student Services section of the university and I'm interviewing overseas students to help me draw up a guide for new students. So I'd be grateful if you could tell me a little about your time since you've been here in Cambridge.
F: Right.
M: OK, urn.., this is your second semester, isn't it? Could you tell us something about your first impressions of the town when you arrived?
F: Yeah, well, first of all, I was struck by how quiet it is here in the evening.
M: Yes, I suppose Cambridge is a quiet place. Where did you live when you first arrived?
F: Well, I went straight into student accommodation, it was a kind of student hostel.
M: Ah fight, so you didn't have to worry about doing your own cooking or anything like that?
F: No, but sometimes I wished I had! The food at the hostel was awful.
M: Oh dear. But how were the other students?
F: To be honest, I haven't managed to make many friends even though the place is full. People seem to keep to themselves, they're not really very friendly.
M: Oh I'm sorry to hear that. Well, what about the actual course? You're studying.., uh?
F: I'm doing a Master's by coursework in Environmental Studies.
M: Ah, fight, and how are you finding that?
F: Yeah, well, it's been pretty good really. I've enjoyed the course, but I feel there hasn't been enough contact with the lecturers. They all seem to be incredibly busy. The only chance I've really had to talk to them was on the field trip.
M: Well that's no good. Could anything he done to improve the course in your opinion?
F: Well... I think it would be helpful to have meetings with lecturers on the course. Say once a fortnight, something like that.
M: Regular meetings. Yes that could certainly help. Now Kate, we'll come back. to you in a minute, but I'd just like to ask Luki some questions...
