Recipes for Success in Teaching Medical English

Date: Sunday, September 30th, 2007 Time: 1:30 PM - 4:00 PM

Speaker: James Hobbs, Iwate Medical University

Description:
Authentic medical English is often assumed to be extremely difficult for the non-expert teacher to understand, let alone teach. The presenter will show that this is not in fact the case, and that a course that prepares learners to cope with complex technical terms and to identify the structure of and key information in authentic medical texts can be successfully taught by any experienced teacher willing to research the subject area beforehand.
