Keeping Up with the Jones

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...

Kep 41: OET Roleplay as Performance: Drama Pedagogy for Medical English Fluency

诗歌 如果你爱我
请你爱我之前先爱你自己
爱我的同时也爱着你自己
你若不爱你自己
你便无法来爱我
这是爱的法则

因为
你不可能给出
你没有的东西
你的爱
只能经由你而流向我

若你是干涸的
我便不能被你滋养
若因滋养我而干涸你
本质上无法成立
因为
剥削你并不能让我得到滋养
