The scoring
How OET Speaking is scored
Oety mirrors the official OET Speaking criteria so your practice targets exactly what the examiner rewards.
1
Intelligibility
Clear pronunciation, word stress, and intonation so the patient understands you the first time.
2
Fluency
Steady pace and smooth flow — pausing deliberately instead of filling with "um" and "uh".
3
Appropriateness of language
Patient-friendly tone, polite hedging, and register matched to the person in front of you.
4
Resources of grammar & expression
Accurate, simple structures and flexible vocabulary — clarity beats risky complexity.
Scenarios

Breaking bad news
Practice delivering difficult information with empathy, pacing, and support for the patient's reaction.
Pre-op assessment
Structure history-taking, explain procedures in plain language, and confirm consent clearly.

Explain dosages, side-effects, and lifestyle advice with teach-back and safety-netting.
Discharge planning
Summarize, lay out next steps, and reassure with clear follow-up and red-flag advice.

OET Speaking tips, built in
A handful of the high-impact ones — all available inside Oety.
01
Decide your opening in advance
Have a ready template: greeting, role, confirmation of name, and purpose. Starting smoothly reduces nerves and builds rapport.
02
Set the agenda in one sentence
"First I'll ask a few questions, then I'll explain what I think is happening, and we'll agree on a plan."
03
Use ICE questions early
Ideas, Concerns, Expectations: "What worries you most? What were you hoping we could do today?"
04
Chunk and check
Give information in small pieces and check understanding: "Does that make sense so far?"
05
Use a symptom framework
SOCRATES for pain, or "when/where/how bad/what makes it better or worse" to never miss key details.
06
Include safety-net advice
"If you notice X, Y, or Z, seek urgent help." This shows clinical responsibility and clarity.
