School Life.
Going to school is one of the most memorable experiences of one’s life. But it can be a difficult experience when your English isn’t as fluent as everyone else’s, and students may go through a lot of hardship because of that. Let’s take a look at some sample conversations that you can use to communicate with your teachers and schoolmates.
Interaction
Hi there! How are you? (Smile) In school, we talk about a lot of things with our classmates. We share our things, tell stories and have a lot of fun. If we want to make a lot of friends at school, we need to communicate with them, and if we want to learn as much as possible, we need to communicate with our teachers. Today’s lesson will show you a variety of conversations about school life.
Practice the dialog by pausing the lesson and repeating the lines anywhere you want! It will help to build up your English fluency. Also, remember to check out the vocabulary section at the end.

Borrowing a Pen From Your Classmate.
Arvan: Hey, do you have an extra pen I could borrow?
Rhys: I can lend you one for this class but I’ll need it back when class is over.
Arvan: That’d be good. I forgot to bring my pencil box today.
Rhys: Not a problem. Here it is!
Arvan: Thanks. I’ll return it as soon as the class is over.
Did You Do Your Homework?
Teacher: Where’s your homework assignment, Nate?
Nate: I couldn't complete my assignment, Sir.
Teacher: And why was that?
Nate: We had some guests over last night. So, I couldn't work at all!
Teacher: Alright. You’ve got three hours after school. Complete and submit last night’s homework assignment before the day ends and you’ll get your grade.
Nate: Thank you so much!
Are You Good in Math?
Nate: How good are you in math?
Rhys: Well, I know 2 plus 2 is not 5.
Nate: Alright. I get it! You and I are in the same boat.
Rhys: Yup. But, why did you ask?
Nate: I was looking for some help to study for the midterms. The syllabus seems to be quite long.
Rhys: Yes it is! We could ask our teacher to give us some extra lessons after school.
Nate: Will she be okay with that?
Rhys: Don’t know. But teachers always say that we can ask for help anytime. We can test her!
Nate: Dude. Help means one or two problems and not every day for the entire syllabus.
Rhys: Well, okay. Let’s see how much help she’ll give us for the midterms.
Checklist For School Field Trip.
Rhys: What have you packed for tomorrow’s field trip?
Arvan: Well, I’ve followed the checklist given by the instructor.
Rhys: I didn’t get any checklist. Can I borrow yours?
Arvan: You would have gotten it, if you had been mentally present when they gave it. Well, you can have my list now. I’m already done with my packing.
Rhys: Alright. Thanks a lot! I’m really looking forward to this field trip!
