Todd: Hello, Tini.
Tini: Yes, hello.
Todd: Now, Tini, I know that you are a very good student and you enjoy being a student.
Tini: Yes, I enjoy being a student.
Todd: OK, so as a teacher, I always want to know students are thinking, so I have some questions for you.
Tini: Sure.
Todd: OK, the first question: Do you like homework?
Tini: Well, to some extent, yes. That's a really difficult question. I used to hate it when I was small but as soon as... you know, like being a university student, you gotta be more initiative toward the work that you do and then so we don't have any more homework but we have to, like, acknowldege our role and our responsibility, our duties as well, and then so.
Todd: Well, how about in class, do you like to study alone or do you like to study in groups with other students?
Tini: Well, like different people, we have different learning styles. Like for me, I think I learn best through listening and discussions.
Todd: So that means you enjoy doing group work?
Tini: Yes, I enjoy doing group work, but of course, like, I would prefer, like, sometimes alone to have my own ideas first and then discuss it. You know, balancing.
Todd: A balance. A fair balance.
Tini: Yes, a fair balance.
Todd: Next question is do you prefer a strict teacher who has many rules or do you prefer and easy going teacher who has no rules over the class?
Tini: Well, like for me, it actually really depends. I would like a moderate teacher actually. Well,...
Todd: Something in between?
Tini: Yes, something in between. A teacher who is very understanding and it's OK if there are many rules, however it doesn't really cross over the line, you know, students, they should have their own lives and then, like, the teacher should respect different ways of doing things for the students I think.
Todd: OK, that sounds good.
Tini: I like interesting teachers probably.
Todd: Last one, do you prefer studying with multi-media, like movies, audio clips, or do you prefer studying with printed material, like books and journals?
Tini: Like, for me I like hands on things, like I like to write on things that I read so I think I prefer, like, journals and books more where I can actually have like a hands-on feeling.
Todd: That you are actually touching it.
Tini: Actually touching it, and actually you can write it, on it, like more flexible, I think, like for me.
Todd: OK, no, that is interesting. Well, thanks for you input.
Tini: No, problem. Anytime.
