Celina_CP #3
For my third conversation partner session I met up with Abdullah from Saudi Arabia. Abdullah is in the Thursday speaking classes that we participate in. We met up at Starbucks at the library and got to chat for an hour or so. I told him a lot about what I study and what I want to do when I graduate. Since I am not sure of where I would eventually like to teach english, we talked in depth about some of the places we have both traveled and some possibilities for teaching job locations. Abdullah previously studied Engineering and has his Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering from his university in Saudi Arabia. He came to the U.S. to improve his english, even though all of his Engineering classes were in english! Eventually he would like to attend Florida State and get his masters. He didn't know what he wanted to study though, because he doesn't want to continue with Engineering. I explained some possible Master's programs FSU offered like Business Administration and Communications and he seemed pretty interested in those areas. I enjoyed learning about Abdullah's culture back home and what living in the U.S. is like for him!
