Description

       The speaking section of the OET exam can be seen as very accessible from a certain perspective.  It is designed to be familiar for medical professionals – it involves a conversation between a medical professional and a patient.             
         Something that OET test-takers will very likely have had lots of experience doing in their jobs. 
However, one of the challenges with the exam is that its OET role play element essentially asks candidates to become actors.
       
The best way to get good at something is to do it often.  This most definitely applies to doing the OET role play.  I have done many role-plays with OET students who are preparing for the exam. They always improve the more often that they do these practice OET role plays.

At first, it seems strange pretending to be in a work situation while in an exam setting but the continued practice helps candidates feel less self-conscious and makes the experience become more natural.
         One of the keys to completing an OET role play successfully is to use as much of your previous experience as possible. For example, look at the following nursing role-play car
OETexam Speaking Role Play Card

You will have three minutes to prepare before the roleplay begins. As well as naturally reading the information on the card carefully, you should also use that time to mentally prepare yourself for your role by thinking about how your previous experiences could help you.

Think about all the older patients you have spoken to in a working capacity.

How did you speak to them? How did they speak to you? What special considerations did you make when interacting with them? Also, think about the times when you have conducted home visits.

How did you greet the patient when she opened the door? How was she feeling? Nervous? Uncertain? Hostile? How did you deal with these feelings? Finally, in this OET role play card you are required to give a lot of reassurance to the patient.

Think about when you have done this in your role as a medical professional.

How did you make your language reassuring?

What tone of voice did you use? How loudly or quietly did you speak?

 

How much did you invite the patient to speak?

It may seem as if there are a lot of questions you are asking yourself here but you shouldn’t need to spend too long thinking about them because all you are doing is reflecting on experiences you are likely to have had many times before in your life. All you need to do now is make use of them!

During the lesson the errors with regard to grammar, pronounciation, and phrases will be notified and suggestions will be given. Lot of role play practices will be given. Practice makes perfect. Regular excercise of an activity or skill is the way to become proficient in it.


All the best !!!!!!!!
