Medical english course

The course is concentrated on the use of English in a medical context. You teach both the language and culturally appropriate communication skills for practicing medical careers in an English speaking environment.

Medical professionals need to make the best possible use of their limited time and therefore it has designed courses that produce results as quickly as possible. All Medical English courses are limited to a maximum of four students per class. This allows students effective interaction and provides ample opportunity for individual attention.

Core Medical English Course

This is the fundamental course and is the basis from which other courses were developed. It concentrates on the acquisition of English in a medical context and it is intended for students with an intermediate to advanced level of English knowledge.

The course is designed to complement the learning process that is natural to most people. We find that 3 hours of intense learning is about the most that an average person can usefully absorb in a day. The rest of the day can be spent most beneficially doing exercises designed to reinforce the learned material. This is accomplished in the companion course, Practicing Medical English.

The course is concentrated and meant to get the material into the students head, the companion course Practicing Medical English keeps it there.

We recommend that students take the full program of 30 hours a week which includes 15 hours of intensive classroom learning (Core Medical English Immersion) and another 15 hours of Medical English reinforcement (Practicing Medical English) which include use of the language laboratory, shadowing (observing) of medical professionals, conversation and pronunciation classes. However, we will try to accommodate students that wish to take only one course at a time.
