Colleen's Future Plans

Audio

While you listen

oCoder Education - English listening Audios are suitable for learners with different levels of English. Here are some ways to make them easier (if you have a lower level of English) or more difficult (if you have a higher level of English).
You can choose one or two of these suggestions – you don't have to follow all of them!

Making it easier

Read all the exercises before you listen to the audio.
Look up the words in the exercises that you don't know or don't understand in a dictionary.
Play the audio as many times as you need.
Play each part of the audio separately.
Answer all questions in the exercise.
Read the transcript after you have listened to the audio.

Making it harder

Listen to the audio before you read the exercises.
Only play the audio once before answering the questions.
Play the whole audio without a break.
Don't read the transcript.
Now, listen to the audio and do the exercises on the following tabs.
If you do not complete all the question, you can play the audio again. After that, read the dialog to make sure that you understand all word in the audio.

Hi my name is Colleen.
I'm eighteen years old and, I'm currently a freshman at a university.
Um, I'm majoring in psychology right now.
And, I hope to in the next five years, earn my masters from this school.
Um, I would like to then work at a children's hospital, with kids with, um, mental problems and, even just... emotional problems.
Um, hopefully then I can work to get my P-H-D, um, so I can become a doctor of psychology.
Then I would like to... hopefully get involved with maybe a partnership, in clinical child psychology, so that I can help children, to grow up to be, uh, stable and well rounded adults.
