M: Really? What is the Academic Skills Center?
W: She says there are tutors and they help students to prepare for classes and tests.

M: 안녕, 제니. 잠시 시간 있어? 난 이 과목을 도와줄 과외 선생님이 필요해.
W: 맞아. 나도 같은 생각을 하고 있었어. 누군가의 도움 없이 공부한다는 건 정말 어려워. 사실, 내 친구 한 명도 전에 이 과목에서 낙제를 했었대. 나에게 도움이 필요하면 학습 지원 센터에 가보라고 했어.
M: 그래? 학습 지원 센터가 뭘 하는 곳이지?
W: 그 친구 말로는 과외 선생님이 있어서 학생들이 수업과 시험 준비를 할 수 있게 도와 준대.
M: 그 사람들이 교사야?
W: 아니야. 우리 같은 학생들이야. 하지만, 이전 학기에서 고득점을 한 학생들이야. 그래서 해당 과목 교사들의 추천으로 거기서 일한대.
M: 그래 정말 잘 됐구나. 유료니?
W: 아니 학교측에서 필요로 하는 학생들에게 제공하는 무료 서비스야. 가서 신청서를 내기만 하면 돼. 학교에서 과외 선생님과 학생 양쪽에 맞는 일정을 짜 줄 거야. 사실, 나도 지금 거기에 가는 길인데 같이 갈래?
M: 물론이지. 같이 가자.
