Physiotherapy-specific cases

Profession-aware role-plays covering 8+ physiotherapy scenarios.

9-criteria OET scoring

Full official rubric — automatically scored on every role-play.

4+ regulators served

UK HCPC · AHPRA / Physiotherapy Board of Australia · Physiotherapy Board of New Zealand and more.

What physiotherapists get

Built around the scenarios physiotherapists actually face.

A musculoskeletal physiotherapist explaining a graded exercise programme to a patient recovering from a rotator cuff injury.

Physiotherapy role-plays

Cases generated against a physiotherapy topic schema — diabetes counselling, post-op handover, stroke rehabilitation handover.

Every OET criterion, scored

Intelligibility, fluency, appropriateness, grammar, empathy, patient perspective, structure, gathering, giving — plus a 0–500 overall and band letter.

Pronunciation diagnostics

Industry-grade pronunciation analysis surfaces the specific words that hurt your score — including the clinical vocabulary physiotherapists say every day.

Cue verification per task

Each role-card has 4–5 tasks. We verify each one against your transcript with the exact quote you used — hit, partial, or miss.

Targets physiotherapists' weak spots

Most physiotherapists lose marks in the same places: providing structure (exercise progression plans), information giving (anatomical terms), understanding the patient perspective (pain catastrophising). The recommender targets these criteria first.

Privacy by default

Your recordings, transcripts, and scores stay on infrastructure we control. Export everything, delete your account, and your data is gone.

Phrase bank

Four phrases worth drilling.

Internalise these and you'll have go-to language for the moments that matter most in migrating physiotherapists' consultations.

Validating pain

Pain can feel really frightening — but it doesn't always mean damage. Let me explain what's likely happening.

Setting expectations

We're going to do three things today: assess, agree on goals, and design a plan you can actually do at home.

Chunked exercise teaching

Let me show you the first exercise. Just watch first, then we'll do it together.

Closing with safety-netting

If anything causes more than mild discomfort, stop and call us. The exercises shouldn't hurt.
