Summary/Abstract: This article focuses on a method that is essential in teaching English for Medical Purposes, namely the use of watching exercises. The study argues in favour of using video in medical language learning, by providing some examples of home-grown materials for watching purposes that can be used in the course room. The various types of exercises presented, combined with the video sequences they are made on, are intended to point out that video aided teaching of English for Medical Purposes can be very motivating, as it allows students to look at medical situations while working on different areas of language.
