Max: Hi. Sarah, long time no see! How are you?
Sarah: Oh, hi, Max, I am fine, thank you! And you?
Max: I am fine too, thanks. Our summer holidays have just begun, isn’t it great?
Sarah: It’s cool! What have you been doing these days?
Max: Oh, I’ve just been catching up on some sleep. I didn’t sleep enough during the academic year. Now I enjoy being able to sleep late. What about you?
Sarah: I’ve been watching TV. You know how much I love to watch documentaries and reality shows, but I never have enough time to do it during the academic year.
Max: I am not keen on watching TV. I can never find anything interesting on. What have you been watching recently?
Sarah: There is a new reality show called «Good Guys Bad Guys». It’s set on a farm which has been converted into a school for one class of difficult students. It is the job of one man to try and teach these students something in the two weeks they are there.
Max: That sounds exciting! How many students are there on the show?
Sarah: There is a group of sixteen boys and girls, aged thirteen and fourteen. They have all been expelled from schools at least once. Their previous teachers said it was not possible to teach them anything.
Max: Oh really? How could their teachers possibly say a thing like that?
Sarah: Well Max, judging by their behaviour on the programme, it is not hard to see why.
Max: I see. Who is their poor teacher?
Sarah: He is a forty-year-old man. He used to play in a rock band, but he gave up music eight years ago to become a teacher.
Max: That is amazing! So, has he started to teach these difficulties yet?
Sarah: He has. Last night I saw the students have their first lesson with him. It didn’t seem very educational to me, but at least he got the attention of all the students.
Max: Who knows, they may accept him in the end.
Sarah: I think they have already started to accept him. Most of them say he is all right.
Max: I think I need to watch this reality show too. When is the new episode?
Sarah: Actually, it’s tonight. Expect something interesting to happen. Last night he promised to take his students to a field to have a reading lesson. They are going to read Shakespearian sonnets there.
Max: It seems to me you are fascinated by this experiment in education.
Sarah: I am! Would you like to watch the show together? It is on channel four at seven thirty p.m.
Max: Thank you Sarah, it’s a great idea.
Sarah: See you tonight then!
