OET (Occupational English Test) is an international English language test that assesses the language communication skills of healthcare professionals who seek to register and practise in an English-speaking environment.
This OET Reading and Listening preparation course (for the ‘Reading and Listening’ test components) is for anyone over 18 wanting to improve their exam techniques for these essential skills, as well as their overall test performance.
Free Sample Lesson
We're offering a free 90 minute sample lesson for anyone interested in taking our OET Preparation Course.
The free lesson aims to provide you with a better understanding of the content of our preparation course. The lesson will include activities that will help you expand your language for the exam and you will familiarise yourself with some sample exam questions.
The 90 minute sample lesson will run twice, on Thursday 23 March and Thursday 30 March from 5.30 to 7.00pm at the English Language Teaching Centre, 78 Hoyle Street, S3 7LG on both dates.

About our Occupational English Test preparation course
- Who is this course for?
-
These classes are suitable for anyone with little or no experience of the OET test or those that want to refresh their exam skills.
If you have taken the test before you may expect an improvement in your test performance from attending the course however this depends on external factors, like how much English is practised and studied outside the classroom and if you have previously studied for the OET examination.
The classes focus on the test techniques and papers and NOT on general language improvement. For this reason a minimum English level of CEFR B2 (IELTS 5.5) is required to take this course. If you are not sure of your English language level, you can arrange for a placement test with us or visit the British Council Learn English website which allows you to test your level of English.
