Summary: Grammar Booster for OET Nursing has been designed to support nursing students and healthcare professionals seeking to boost their English language proficiency in the workplace through consolidation, extension and application of their existing grammar knowledge to a range of healthcare settings. It provides the opportunity to develop more effective communication skills for use in a range of healthcare settings through increased awareness of grammar forms presented and practised in context. Grammar Booster for OET Nursing is ideal for healthcare students and professionals who have a current minimum English language proficiency of Upper Intermediate level (CEFR B2), plan to have their English language proficiency assessed through the Occupational English Test (OET), wish to build their confidence to become more effective communicators in the workplace. The text is a user-friendly grammar resource which can be used for independent study or adapted for classroom use to support specialised English language nursing courses, including English for Academic Purposes (EAP) for Nursing and OET preparation courses. Grammar Booster for OET Nursing offers ten units. Units 1-9 are stand-alone units, each of which addresses a key grammar area that may cause difficulty for learners. Units 1-9 include: an introductory setting to showcase the grammar area for development, a Grammar Boost section to provide examples and explanations, practice tasks to develop proficiency in applying the grammar structures to healthcare contexts. With answer keys for the practice tasks in each unit at the back of the book. Unit 10 is a Review Unit designed to recycle all key grammar areas explored and practised in Units 1-9 and has an answer key for the review tasks at the back of the book.
