Woman:    Yes, certainly. Well, we actually offer a number of courses in Japanese at different levels. Are you looking for full time or part time?

Man:     Oh! I couldn't manage full time as I work every day but evenings would be fine and certainly preferable to weekends.

Woman:    Well, we don't offer courses at the weekend anyway, but let me run through your options. We have a 12-week intensive course three hours three nights a week - that's our crash course! Or an eight month course two nights a week

Man:     I think the crash course would suit me best as I'll be leaving for Japan in six months time.

Woman:    Are you a beginner?

Man:     Not a complete beginner, no!

Woman:    Well ... we offer the courses at three levels, beginners, lower intermediate and upper intermediate, though we don't always run them all. It depends very much on demand.

Man:     I'd probably be at the lower intermediate level - as I did some Japanese at school but that was ages ago.

Woman:    Right, well the next Level Two course begins on Monday 12th September - there are still some places on that one - otherwise you'd have to wait until January or March.

Man:     No - I'd prefer the next course.

Woman:    Right! Can I get some details from you then so I can send you some information?

Man:     Sure!

Woman:    What's your name? Family name first.

Man:     Hagerty. Richard.

Woman:    H A G A R T Y?

Man:     No. H AG E RTY

Woman:    Oh, OK! And your address, Richard?

Man:     Well perhaps you could email it to me.

Woman:    Right. What's your email address?

Man:     It's ricky45 - that's one word R I C K Y 4 5, at hotmail dot com.

Woman:    And I just need some other information for our statistics. This helps us offer the best possible courses and draw up a profile of our students.

Man:     Fine!

Woman:    What's your date of birth?

Man:     I was born on 29th February 1980.
