Your Tutor for the Medical Terminology is;
Rebecca Harvey
rebecca@lewiscollege.co.uk
For the Medical Terminology section of your course, you will cover 17 units which will build your knowledge of medical terminology covering the whole body.
You will learn the theory behind the medical terms before working on key concepts and then the practical construction in each section.
You will then build on solid ground as your level of understanding develops from one exercise to the next.
As you are learning how to spell medical terms correctly, checking your work is a key aspect of learning medical terminology.
It is good practice to complete the exercise and then leave it for another day to check through again before submitting. Get into the habit of checking your work referring to any guides and information documents provided as well as your medical terminology text book.
As you complete exercises for each unit and send them to your tutor for marking, it is a good idea to create folders on your computer for each individual unit, for example Unit MT1 – Basic Term Construction, Unit MT2 – the Digestive System etc.
Your tutor will return your completed exercises with notes and annotations, so we advise you to save these annotated, marked exercises in the unit folders for later use.
Medical Terminology Exam
After you have completed all 17 units, your tutor will be in touch to provide access to our Medical Terminology Revision Quizzes on the Hub as well as to provide additional support and advice for carrying out revision.
Once you have carried out some revision, you will start to complete mock/practice exam papers in preparation for the final Medical Terminology exam. These will be sent to you via email from your tutor who will individually mark each and provide feedback as well as your mark for that mock/practice exam paper.
You will continue to complete mock/practice exam papers until you are at a sufficient standard and ready to sit the exam.
Ready to make a start then on your first unit when ready – enjoy!
