H: Well, for one thing, I’d like to know what sort of people will attend the course. I mean, are they teachers or students, young or old? And where do they come from mainly? I don’t want to spend the time with a group from Germany. I’d prefer an international group, so I could practise my English.
L: Mmm, I can understand that. Why don’t you check? Also, have you thought about accommodation? I noticed there was a little about family-stay possibilities in the brochure, but not much else. What about accommodation in student hostel? It’s often cheaper and a lot better than living in a family.
H: Ok, I’ll check that too when I write to Linda Longfellow. You know, I don’t see anything about methods of payment for the course. The prices are all there, but nothing about how to pay. I’d like to pay by credit card if possible, when I arrive. I hope they accept them.
L: I’m sure they will. Another thing – when you write, why don’t you find out how the course will be organized? I mean, what methods will they use? Will it just be lectures, or will you have to make presentations, individually or in groups? And, erm… will there be a lot of discussion, videos, films, that sort of things? I don’t think you can get very much from just lectures.
H: Good point. One more thing – do you think I’ll get a certificate or something if I complete this course? That’d be useful. And are there any examinations? Oral or in writing? Actually, there are a lot of questions I need to ask.
