extra curricular open programme
From September 2008 | Free
One-to-One presentation skills sessions designed to help medical students feel more at ease with patients and colleagues.
Do you feel embarrassed, nervous or even terrified at the prospect of interacting with patients? Are you worried that you might blush and mumble in a consultation or insult patients or colleagues by accident?
These one-to-one 45 minute sessions are intended to help students with the way they communicate - whether by showing them how to use their voice clearly and effectively, improving body language, or providing helpful tips on giving presentations. Each session is adapted to the needs of the individual.
Sessions are free to undergraduate medical students at Barts and The London, Kings College, London and Imperial College London.
Sessions by appointment only | Contact us | Tel: 020 7749 0555
