6. You are student teaching?
7. Yeah, you know I am majoring in education, so one of the requirements is to teach for a semester in a classroom, usually at the local school in town.
8. We help teach the kids at school one day a week.
9. I just got my class assignment.
10. Well, that's good.
11. Yeah, but I've got a scheduling problem.
12. Ah oh.
13. The day I have been assigned to teach at the school in town will be the same day my Chinese history course meets here at the university.
14. Hmmm, well, could you wait to take the Chinese history course?
15. Sign up for it another semester or something.
16. Yeah, but this one is taught by Doctor Zhang.
17. He is a visiting professor.
18. He will only be here one semester, and he is supposed to do be amazing.
19. I am really interested in the class since I might be visiting China.
20. Is there another option?
21. Yeah, actually, the teaching assignment is on a day when I will be working with older kids, teenagers, but the school also needs a student teacher to work in a classroom with little kids like five and six year olds and it is on a different day when I am free.
22. So I could do it.
23. So you could change your teaching assignment to a different day.
24. Yeah.
25. It's just that I really want to teach older kids.
26. Oh.
27. I am planning on teaching older kids when I graduate.
28. So it would be better experience for me, for my career.
