What is A MOOT POINT? Listen to find out!

Brentoni's English Podcast

039 - a moot point

In this episode of OET Roleplay Practice with Kev, The English Native, we explore Roleplay Card #3: a consultation between a doctor and a patient worried they might have diabetes.

This roleplay is a practical example of how doctors can:
Gather patient information naturally
Show empathy and reassurance
Use structured, supportive explanations
Guide patients through next steps clearly

By listening carefully, you’ll learn how to:
Respond to patient concerns without sounding robotic
Use sequencing language for clarity
Balance medical accuracy with supportive communication
End the consultation with a safe, collaborative plan

👉 If you’re preparing for OET Speaking, these strategies will help you demonstrate empathy, responsiveness, and clarity — all essential for Band A performance.

JULIE: I just bought a ticket to New York City. I’m so 
excited to see the city!
SOPHIE: Good for you! Traveling is so much fun. I love 
discovering new places and new people. When 
are you leaving?
JULIE: Next week. I’m taking the red eye. It was cheaper. 
Hopefully, I’ll be able to sleep on the plane.
SOPHIE: I wish I could go with you! New York City is a magical 
place. You will have so much fun.
JULIE: I hope so. I’m going to visit my brother who lives 
there. I will stay for a week and then take the train 
down to Washington, D.C.
SOPHIE: That sounds like a great vacation. I’m looking 
forward to a week at the beach for my summer 
vacation. I just want to relax.


LANGUAGE NOTES
• Ticket can refer to many different types of transportation (metro, bus, train, plane, etc.). 
In general, you can guess the means of transportation by the context.
• When discussing airplane travel, a red eye is a flight that leaves at night to arrive early 
the next morning. This is in reference to how red your eyes become when you don’t get 
a full night’s sleep
