Lesson 2 Word 1 ( Corpse )

In this episode, Kev Dean explores a bold new approach to OET Speaking preparation—treating roleplay as performance. Drawing on drama pedagogy, clinical communication theory, and AI-enhanced rehearsal tools, Kev shares how medical candidates can rehearse tone, empathy, and genre-specific phrasing to reduce fillers and sound more like real clinicians.

🎭 Highlights include:

Why “Hamlet with a stethoscope” reframes OET as rehearsable dialogue

How drama pedagogy boosts fluency, intonation, and emotional clarity

Using AI-generated audio scripts for shadowing and rehearsal

Replacing “ums” and “ahs” with structured, empathetic phrasing

Building a tonal repertoire: clinical, conversational, and examiner styles

Real examples from Turkish and Ukrainian learners

Whether you're a doctor, nurse, or educator, this episode offers a fresh lens on how performance theory can transform medical English training...
