Question 39 is based on the following passage:

Teaching Medical English

Medical English continues to be a growing field as more

pharmacists, doctors and nurses leave their home countries and

work in English-speaking countries or countries with large

international communities such as the UAE.

Teaching medical English can be tough if you don’t have a

background in life sciences like biology, anatomy and physiology.

Fortunately, resources like Hospital English and Multimedical

English have a wealth of supplementary material that can help you

teach medical English in the classroom.

In addition, medical English lessons should involve

vocabulary-building exercises to help students remember difficult

medical terms. They should also focus on building speaking and

listening skills, as well as improving reading skills so that students

can understand those challenging medical journals.

The good news is that most medical English students are

already studying at the advanced level, so creating lessons to

improve their proficiency levels shouldn’t be too difficult. Unlike in

beginner classes, you can typically rely heavily on authentic English

content like medical videos, talks and publications to create

meaningful and challenging lessons.
