Counsellor　　Hi-you must be Jack. I’m Ellen Short-one of the student counsellors at
　　　　　　　Grisham College.
Jack　　　　　Nice to meet you Ellen.
Counsellor　　I see you’re an external student Jack. Do you find it difficult to do your
　　　　　　　assignments without going to lectures?
Jack　　　　　Oh, not really. We get really good study guides that have all the information we
　　　　　　　need but we can also contact the lecturers by phone or email. It’s been a great
　　　　　　　course.
Counsellor　　That’s good to hear. Now what can I help you with?
Jack　　　　　I’d like to talk about my career options. I’m teaching French at the moment and
　　　　　　　studying Linguistics but I’ve been offered a research position at the university. I
　　　　　　　really don’t know whether to take the position or not.
Counsellor　　Oh I see. Do you enjoy teaching?
Jack　　　　　Well, yes-for the most part I do. I find teaching very satisfying-it’s great to
　　　　　　　see students do well. And of course, I love the summer holiday-six weeks at
　　　　　　　the end of the school-year is fantastic.
Counsellor　　Yes, but you’d get a long summer holiday at the university, wouldn’t you?
Jack　　　　　Yes-I think it’s an even longer period.
Counsellor　　Is there anything that you don’t like about teaching?
Jack　　　　　Oh yes-lazy students who don’t want to do any work or the ones that behave
　　　　　　　badly and disturb the rest of the class. That can be very difficult. I guess I am a
　　　　　　　little tired of teaching. The pay for teachers isn’t very good either. In fact, I find
　　　　　　　it difficult to save any money from my salary.
Counsellor　　I see. So, what do you think the advantages of working at the university will
　　　　　　　be?
Jack　　　　　Well, as I said, it’s a research position which means I wouldn’t be teaching-
　　　　　　　it would be nice to have a break. The pay will be much better than what I’m
　　　　　　　getting at the moment and of course, I’d still get a long summer holiday.
　　　　　　　And, professionally I think working at a university would help me in the
　　　　　　　future.
Counsellor　　So are there any negatives?
Jack　　　　　Well, the only real negative that I can think of is that I’ll be working by myself.
　　　　　　　I’m not really used to that. It seems with teaching that there’s always somebody
　　　　　　　around-whether it’s the students or teachers or parents.
Counsellor　　So, you can only think of one disadvantage?
Jack　　　　　Well, I’d have to travel a longer distance. At the moment, I just walk to school
　　　　　　　but I’d have to drive for about 35 minutes to the university.
Counsellor　　Right Jack-let’s write down all of the advantages and disadvantages in both
　　　　　　　jobs.
Jack　　　　　Yes-that sounds like a good idea.
Counsellor　　Right-let’s start with the advantages of teaching...
