Lesson 1.
Listen to the conversation between Andrea and Eric to find the answers to these questions.
What is Eric worried about?
How does Andrea help him?
What's wrong, Eric?
I'm really nervous.
I'm always this way on the first day of school.
You're not the only one.
It's hard for me too.
I'm glad we're taking this class together.
Do you know anything about the teacher?
Aha, a little.
Someone told me she gives a lot of homework and you have to talk a lot in class.
Oh no.
I'm afraid of talking in front of a lot of people.
Oh, don't worry.
Everyone's afraid at the beginning.
But after you get to know the people and make friends.
It doesn't get better for me.
I'm shy.
I have trouble looking at people when I talk.
In my hands shake.
Look, the teacher's here.
Let's talk after class.
Your turn.
Listening challenge.
Listen to the short conversation.
Two people are asking questions because they want to get to know each other.
Hi. Where are you from?
Japan.
How about you?
I'm from Mexico.
When did you come to the US?
About a month ago.
And you?
About six months ago.
Do you like it here?
Now I do.
But I didn't like it at the beginning.
Why not?
Well, I didn't understand anything.
Everyone was speaking very fast.
I know what you mean.
You know, I don't know your name.
It's Rika. What's your name?
It's nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you too.
