How to learn vocabulary related to your field of study faster?

Introduction

Hi listeners, and welcome to my educative video! If you don’t already know, my name is Marylou. I’m currently studying Social Sciences at Ahuntsic College, but I planned to change my program and study in Paramedical emergency care to become a paramedic.

For those of you who don’t know about this field of study, It’ll be my pleasure to explain to you what this program involves. In order to become a paramedic we have to learn patient assessment, transportation techniques, medical emergencies, pharmacology, Prehospital trauma life support, advanced cardiac life support, emergency vehicle operation and crisis intervention. And we will need that in order to be capable of responding to emergency calls such as accidents and to provide emergency medical care out-of-hospital settings.

We all know that speaking English can be stressful to people who it's not their first language. Am I right? Barrage language can be a big problem if you are from a big city like me and people often talk more in English. As an effect, people cannot be understood well if you don’t communicate easily with them. Nobody wants to be misunderstood right?

Even if I haven’t started my program yet, I know that I will have to communicate a lot with people in distress and I know that in my city many people speak English. I am really motivated to improve my literacy skills in order to be able to communicate well.

I have gotten really good at English recently, before the pandemic, I traveled two times in Florida and improved my talking with the people here who only speaks English.

This is why my plan is to show you how to learn fast vocabulary to improve your English and communicate more easily with others by using the Virtual writing tutor.

Get ready to follow my educational tutorial, it will only take few minute.

You’ll be impressed at what you can do with the website I’m going to show you.

The Problem

Despite all my enthusiasm and my motivation to become a paramedic, I’m not gonna lie, I’m a little bit stressed out about all the terms I have to learn and my lack of communication in English.

When you have to talk to a patient about the condition of his wife for example, and the patient that is counting on you to reassure him only speak English and you don’t know any word related to paramedic care in English and either how to communicate well with him.

Well, you look like a fool, and we don’t want that!

But happily, I have found out the perfect solution to this problem. In the next few minutes, I’ll show you how to learn any type of vocabulary faster by using The Virtual Writing Tutor. Plus, you can refer to it anytime for free!
