Teaching
HELP! ESP-Medical English
Hello there,
I am gonna teach Medical English at university for the first time and I was wondering if you have any ideas to teach the syllabi more interactively! Each session is 3 hours with 15 mins break in between, gotta cover medical terminology in 1:30 and the rest have to work on either reading or listening. The number of ss is around 30-35 and I'm looking for a way to teach in a CELTA/DELTA way, but it sounds rather impossible. I have to teach the prefixes, suffixes and the roots of many terms for 1:30!!! How can I make it more interesting and not monotonous!? any ideas?
Many thanks,
Sib

HI Sib
I am in the process of putting together a course on Medical English for our teachers here. I would be happy to send you materials as I find them. This will be my project for next week. Would you send me a course overview with the areas you would like materials for and I'll do my best
John, I know that you are both a Doctor and an English teacher. I was about to ask if

Hello Dave,
Thanks for your suggestions, I will def need your help, but for now I think I am quite happy. I used John's suggestions and advice and things are going on pretty well.
The book I am teaching is 'Medical terminology' and 4 chapters are going to be covered this term (Diseases, Circulation, Surgery and Digestion), the focus of the course is on their reading and listening
