One thing before we start, don’t worry about mistakes. When you’re learning, it’s natural to make mistakes.
In fact, making mistakes helps us learn. So, don’t worry. The more you speak, the easier it will become.
That’s true. And you will have more fun if you join in with us.
Now, let’s warm up by chatting about this week’s topic which is “Do you think we should study things we don’t like?”
Riku, you’ve said that you like to study math, right?
Yes.
Are there any subjects that you don’t like to study?
I don’t like to study history.
So, Riku, in your school do you have to study history?
No, I don’t have to.
Oh. You can choose.
In Jr. high and high school and even in university, you may have to study something you don’t like.
That’s right. Now, should we study things we don’t like? We’ll think and talk about that this week.
Now, let’s move onto this week’s dialogue.
Ken is talking with Ms. Sakamoto, his math teacher.
They seem to be having a serious conversation.
Let’s listen.
