Online English for Vets - Clinical English and Communication Class Meetings
Struggling with client communication in the consult room?65% of UK employers also don’t think non-English speaking overseas vets have good enough communication skills to be hired and 60% think they could do with a better English level.
We can help you beat the statistics.
It’s no surprise that overseas vets feel
That it's hard to get a job
That we struggle in the consultation when we start working
That the clients aren't listening to our advice
That the clients complain for things we didn’t realise had even happened
That we aren't getting feedback from the team, just being "told off" by the management
UK VetTalks exists to help you develop your clinical English and client communication skills in the consultation room.
We offer online English for veterinary practitioners.
- Practise the discussions you’re going to have with your clients and colleagues
- Learn the technical language and dozens of abbreviations and acronyms
- Learn how to deal with common clinical cases
- Practise what you say to clients (without the pressure of having to please them!) to explain complex situations
- Learn specific skills required for your Occupational English Test
UK VetTalks offers you three in one!

- Perform faster consultations because you’re quicker with your words and don’t have to think so much about your explanations

How it works…
UK VetTalks works as a monthly subscription. The first week is on the house, meaning you can join up to two live classes before you decide whether they are for you or not.
Live meetings take place using Zoom. You will have a tutor with slides to guide the meeting, but it’s strongly interactive!
