Okay , let's begin . Hello , everyone . My name's Karl Roberts , and I'll be your teacher for this class , Intercultural Communication .   ( quietly ) I don't understand what the teacher is saying .   Uh , to begin with , please take a look at the syllabus in front of you . As you all should know by now , this class meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:15 to 4:50 .   That's terrible . He speaks too fast . How can I catch his meaning ?
