Imagine that Silvia, one of your friends, had to go to the village home because her school was closed due to the Corona situation. Now the face-to-face classes have started, and Silvia needs help in English and Mathematics. Write a short conversation offering your help.
Myself: Hello! How are you?
Silvia: I ‘m fine. But a little bit worried.
Myself: What’s up? Would you tell me all in details?
Sylvia: Not very well. Due to the long school closure for COVID-19, I have fallen behind in English and Math.
Myself: Why? Aren’t you attending online classes every day?
Silvia: No, you know, we don’t have a good network in village. So I could not attend online classes regularly
Myself: Oh! I feel sorry. You should attend the online classes.
Silvia: You know due to Corona Pandemic I have to leave the city. My all family was in my hometown. There internet connection was not available.
Myself: I understand the matter. But the syllabus is very vast. Would you expect any help from me?
Silvia: Yes. I want you to help me. Would you?
Myself: Don’t worry. I am here. I attended online classes daily. So I will help you with this.
Silvia: You saved me.
Myself: I have saved videos of some important classes. I will provide you those.
Silvia: That will be great! You should share all documents and videos with me.
Myself: No problem. I will
Silvia: You made me happy.
Myself: No problem. we are friends.
Sylvia: Yes, of course.
Or,
Me: Hey Sylvia, seeing you after a long time. What’s up?
Sylvia: Not very well. Due to the long school closure for COVID-19, I have fallen behind in English and Math.
Me: Why? Aren’t you attending online classes every day?
Silvia: No, you know, we don’t have a good network in village. So I could not attend online classes regularly.
Me: Don’t worry. I am here. I attended online classes daily. So I will help you with this.
Sylvia: You saved me.
Me: No problem. we are friends.
Sylvia: Yes, of course.
Or,
Me: Hey Silvia, how’s everything going? I heard that you had to go back to your village home because of the school closure.
Silvia: Yeah, it was a bit of a shock. I’m glad face-to-face classes have started again, but I’m struggling a bit with English and Math.
Me: Well, I’d be happy to help out if you need it. I’m pretty strong in those subjects, so just let me know if you need any help with homework or anything like that.
Silvia: That would be great! I could use some help. Can we meet up sometime this week to go over some stuff?
Me: Definitely. How about Wednesday after school? We can meet at the library or at a coffee shop, whichever you prefer.
Silvia: The library would be good. Thanks so much for your help, [Your Name]!
Me: No problem. I’m happy to help out a friend. See you on Wednesday!
