Are you “ticking the boxes” in your OET Speaking test but still stuck at a borderline score? In this episode, Kevin Dean (IELTS & OET teacher at theenglishnative.com
) breaks down the biggest OET Speaking mistake — failing to respond to the patient — and shows you exactly how to fix it.

Learn how to:

Identify and respond to patient cues (B1, B2, A4, E4)

Show empathy and gather more information naturally

Rotate your phrases to sound more like a real clinician

Avoid the “task checklist trap” that keeps candidates at C grade

This episode is packed with real examples from official OET role-plays, practical language you can use in your next test, and tips to sound like the kind of doctor or nurse patients want to visit.
