  • Describing Symptoms: Onset, Duration & Severity for OET & IELTS
    2026/07/30

    Mr. Davies is back at the GP clinic — this time to describe how he's really feeling, in detail.

    Nadia and Tom cover the vocabulary of a symptom-focused consultation: symptoms, onset, duration, severity, pain scale, associated symptoms, aggravating factors, relieving factors, diagnosis, and follow-up consultation. Each term is defined with a natural example, then demonstrated in a full doctor-patient exchange, followed by a slower repeat and a short comprehension quiz.

    Describing symptoms accurately and being understood in return is one of the most heavily tested skills in OET Speaking, and a core vocabulary cluster for IELTS healthcare contexts.

  • At the Pharmacy: Prescriptions & Medication Vocabulary for OET & IELTS
    2026/07/30

    Mr. Davies collects a prescription — and the pharmacist walks through exactly what he needs to know before he leaves the counter.

    Nadia and Tom cover the vocabulary of a community pharmacy visit: prescription, pharmacist, dosage, directions, side effect, over-the-counter, generic medication, repeat prescription, medication label, and collection. Each term is defined and demonstrated in a natural pharmacist-patient exchange, followed by a slower repeat of the key lines and a short quiz to check understanding.

    A high-value episode for OET Speaking (pharmacist and nurse role-plays both draw on this scenario) and for IELTS healthcare vocabulary at the intermediate level.
