Communication

Give your students the English they need to describe symptoms and handle a medical appointment with confidence. This ready-to-teach set has five connected lessons, a revision page, and a final task-based lesson where students run a full doctor-patient conversation.

Students build 20 symptom words and 12 medical tools, practise the instructions doctors give (roll up your sleeve, lie down, breathe in), and learn since and for with the Present Perfect so they can say exactly how long they have felt unwell. They also learn clinic phrases for asking someone to repeat or slow down, plus 12 health idioms such as under the weather and on the mend. Each lesson has listening, pair work, and speaking practice, and every lesson comes with an answer key.

‍

What you get:

5 lessons, a revision page, and a final task-based lesson with role cards

Role-plays that grow from simple to full conversations
