This unit focuses on the language we use to talk about physical complaints and to make appointments with the doctor. Learners will watch a video clip about a man who visits the doctor. They will listen to and participate in a dialogue between a woman and a medical receptionist. They will read a set of instructions to accompany some pills and will read and write an email message in which the writer explains that they are sick. They will be presented with and practice vocabulary to talk about parts of the body, at the doctor, and days of the week.
