William, do you like studying English? 

I like studying English, and I can read well, but speaking can be difficult.

It’s not that bad. If you talk to your American friends every day, you’ll learn quickly. 

Can I ask you a question?

Sure, what do you want to know? 

I have my book from class here. How do you say this word?

‘Laptop ‘

Sorry, I don’t understand. What does that mean?

A laptop is a type of computer that you can carry with you. Do you understand? 

Yes, I think so. Can you say it again?

‘Laptop’. 

‘Laptop’. Did I pronounce that correctly?

Yes, that’s right. That’s very good. 

Thanks. And this word? How do you pronounce this?

That word is pronounced ‘kitchen’. 

Thanks so much. You’re a good teacher.

Thanks.
