Foreign Students
Have Trouble
In Some Lectures
Classroom lectures and discus
sions are sometimes hal'd to un
derstand for a number of foreign
students. D. P. Bhutani. student
from India in journalism, reported ;
recently.
He said that some instructors, t
unmindful of the presence of the ;
foreign students, speak too fast
for them. Other students have said :
that during discussions, both the
teachers and the American stu- (
dents have a tendency to use j
American idioms. This ninkes the
English somewhat different from
the language in the books many of
the foreign students used to learn
English.
Discussions become quite unin-!
telligible to them, Bhutani said. He
pointed out that this was one of
the reasons foreign students find .
it hard to participate in classroom
discussions.
