Hi, welcome to my new blog post. This article contains links that explain the life of Henry Norman Bethune, the surgeon I talked about in my oral. I hope you enjoy learning more about him as much as I did!


The Medical Life of Henry Norman Bethune 

This article is the best I have found. It tells all the details about Henry's life. In this article, you can find information about what he accomplished as a doctor. For example, you learn that he helped reform the Canadian healthcare system. He helped change the medical field in Canada. All his accomplishments are mentioned in this article. Therefore, I encourage you to read it!


This brief article presents a small summary of Bethune's life. It also tells additional information about his life, such as his trip to Spain. 

Unfortunately, this article is in French, but it shows some pictures from Henry's life. This article explains deeper his trip to Spain and China. It is very interesting, mostly if you like to see pictures! Also, this article vaguely relates to medicine, but it is still captivating learning more about Dr. Bethune's personal life. 

 

This article presents information about the end of his life. Moreover, his trips to Spain and China are better explained. You also learn about the fact that he invented some medical instruments which I think is amazing.


I encourage you to read all those articles in order to better understand Henry Norman Bethune.

    Noémie, your oral presentation was very interesting! I see that you were thoroughly equipped for your mid-term oral presentation with variety of sources from where to draw your information. Thank you once again for writing your sources in the format required. It was a pleasure reading you!

    Elements to review:
    - If you are able to fix it (because I know some students have been experiencing difficulties), try to align your text to the left.
    - Verb tense: links that explained the life of Henry Norman Bethune
    - word choice: relates
    - word choice (help): Canadian help care system.
    - I would reformulate this sentence using stronger vocabulary (try to avoid overusing 'thing': He did many other great things and those things are mentioned in this article.
    - word choice (adds): It also adds additional information about his life...
    - things? Such as? Provide a few: It also clarifies some of the things he did.
    - try to find synonyms: a little bit less (somewhat less related to medicine / vaguely relates to / moderately relates to medicine, etc.).
    - verb tense (learning) it is still captivating learning more about his personal life.
    - spelling mistake (Bathune)
    - I know you mean Dr. Bethune, but please mention his name at least once in your short text (the last one): "This article presents information about the end of his life."
    - add transition word at the beginning of your sentence: His trips to Spain and China are explained better.
    -word order (explained better): His trips to Spain and China are explained better.
    - verb tense (encouraged): I encouraged you to read
    - word order (understand better): all those articles in order to understand better Henry Norman Bethune
