One-week Intensive preparation

This one-week course is for non-native doctors, nurses or midwives who want to work in UK hospitals. Study and practise the specific formats for each part of the exam (Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking) so you are confident and prepared when you take OET. This includes study of the medical language necessary for the exam and also for the profession you are aiming for (Medicine or Nursing). 

Morning classes focus on Speaking and Writing; afternoon classes focus on Reading and Listening. There is a full mock exam included for each participant. By the end of the course, you will have the techniques and language needed in your future patient interactions.

    "Hi Pete and Steve, Thank you to the untiring effort and mentoring from your OET teaching, I could pass my coming exam. I was very un-confident about myself for the OET exam and your 1-week virtual classroom course helped me to understand about how to prepare efficiently for the upcoming exam and it has given me more confident as well. Once again, thank you very much for your support."

    - Mihai 

    "I wanted to take the intensive OET preparation course because the exam is new to me and IH Bristol seemed the best place to do the course in the local area. One of the most useful aspects of the course was the opportunity to practise the different sections of the test and have feedback from the tutors on my performance. I especially liked the teachers because they were so friendly and helpful!"
