English for Nurses
The course is a highly practical ESP course designed for learners at B1 level who need to improve their English ability to work as a nurse. It is particularly suitable for trainee or practicing nurses who are studying to be licenced in an English-speaking country, or who interact with English-speaking patients or colleagues. Each lesson prepares learners to understand and communicate confidently in a typical nursing situation with patients, doctors, and other nurses. The course has a strong emphasis on building the knowledge and use of nursing-specific vocabulary. Learners can improve their oral skills through regular practice aimed at developing international intelligibility. Exposure to a wide variety of English accents (both native and non-native) helps users develop confidence when dealing with patients and colleagues from around the world, and record and playback activities provide valuable practice with appropriate language and responses in a variety of common scenarios. |
