About the Author: Jackie Bolen

I taught English in South Korea for 10 years to every level and type of student. I've taught every age from kindergarten kids to adults. Most of my time has centered around teaching at two universities: five years at a science and engineering school in Cheonan, and four years at a major university in Busan where I taught upper-level classes for students majoring in English. In my spare time, you can usually find me outside surfing, biking, hiking, or snowshoeing. I now live in Vancouver, Canada.

In case you were wondering what my academic qualifications are, I hold a Master of Arts in Psychology. During my time in Korea, I completed both the Cambridge CELTA and DELTA certification programs. With the combination of almost ten years teaching ESL/EFL learners of all ages and levels, and the more formal teaching qualifications I've obtained, I have a solid foundation on which to offer advice to English learners.

Please send me an email with any questions or feedback that you might have.

Introduction to Medical English Dialogues

Welcome to this book designed to help you expand your knowledge of medical English. My goal is to help you speak more fluently and understand more of what you hear.

Let's face it, English can be difficult to master, even for the best students. In this book, you'll find dialogues that are ideal for intermediate-level students.

The best way to learn new vocabulary is in context.

To get the most bang for your buck, be sure to do the following:

−  Review frequently.

−  Try to use some of the phrases and expressions in real life.

−  Don't be nervous about making mistakes. That's how you'll get better at English!

−  Consider studying with a friend so you can help each other stay motivated.

−  Use a notebook and write down new words, idioms, expressions, etc. that you run
