Practicing Medical English Course
This course is intended to be taken with the Core Medical English Course. It is designed to reinforce the material learned in that course.

Practicing Medical English is not as intense as Core Medical English  but it is calculated to help the student commit the Core material to long-term memory. This is done by using the material learned in the Core course.

The two courses are coordinated so that the same material that is being taught in the Core course is being reinforced in this course. The fact that there is a maximum of 6 students in the class assures the students that they have ample class time to use what they have learned.

Like the Core course Practicing Medical English is ongoing on a four month rotating basis. All components of the course will be taught every month but the content will not repeat itself until the fifth month. This means that a student can enter the course at any time, and can choose a one, two, three or four month course.

The program is 15 hours a week and includes 15 hours of learning which include use of the language laboratory, shadowing of medical professionals, conversation and pronunciation classes.
