In this episode, you'll hear a conversation with Rachel Williams from Fluent Medical English.
Rachel was a nurse working on the hospital wards and in the theatres (operating rooms) in England. She worked alongside nurses from the Philippines, India and Poland, doctors from Iraq, Germany and Spain. She saw the challenges they faced, communicating in a second, or third language in stressful situations. She then changed careers at 40 to train as an English language teacher and went back to university in 2018 to do her Master’s in Applied Linguistics.
A true life-long learner.
You'll hear her talk about:
- how she helps her clients
- grammar mistakes that can affect safety
- the value of self-correction
- a nonfiction book she would recommend to anyone
If you're a doctor or a nurse who needs help with English, I can't think of a better teacher for you than Rachel.
