— Hey, Beca!
— Hi, Jenny! Jenny, what do you think of our school time? We're leaving for college soon, will you miss school?
— Yes! I've really enjoyed school. It's not only a place to study, it's a place where I can hang out with friends and have fun. I love it. Except tests and homework, of course — they're timewasters.
*—*Totally agree with you. The teachers don't give us enough freedom.
— Yes. Teaching is probably one of the most difficult jobs. You need to have so many professional skills as well as so-called soft skills. You need to love children, be patient and hard-working. You need to be a real troubleshooter and to be socially and emotionally intelligent.
— Agree. But, unfortunately, not all the teachers are truly committed to their work. A lot of them don't even like their job at all.
— Yeah, that's sad. And teachers can be so biased! For example, I have straight As in Physics and I really want to be a nuclear scientist. But my teacher is always saying that boys are better at Physics and Maths and girls should think about Literature more.
— Too bad! I'm sure you'll prove him wrong very soon.
— Me too. Thanks.
