1. Course description

Nowadays, the need for English as a professional language in Medicine is growing more than ever. Although the language of Medicine is universal mainly, difficulties emerge when medical professionals face English-speaking patients or consult with English-speaking colleagues. Besides, scientific literature in Medicine is more diverse in English than in any other language. No doubt, there is an overriding necessity for medical professionals to master not only General English but also Medical English.

The Medical English program at ZENITH lingo is designed to help healthcare professionals and students improve their English language skills in various medical contexts. Our courses address the specific needs of non-native speakers working in Medicine or attending medical education institutes.
