Is it normal for a Rabbi to want to convert?

have decided to convert to Conservative Judaism because I want to be observant, more observant then Reform.

QUESTION:
My friend found me a Rabbi and said the Rabbi, , loved to convert. I talked to him for the first time today and he was telling me about classes, saying if I start now, a couple classes missed, I will be converted by May. But if I wait until i get my car in November I will start classes late, but then wait to make up the classes up to november and my conversion would end in November. He said i will have the circumsision ritual, mikveh and beit din.

Is it normal for a Rabbi to want to convert? To be so open about all of the converting process and the length of the process and so forth talking for the first time?
