Medical Spanish Online Course: The Modules

Our modules can be tailored to your particular needs. A few examples are:

Medical Vocabulary in Spanish.This is our most basic module for learning medical Spanish. The focus here is on firstly covering the vocabulary for general medicine, and then for the specific area of the field a student might be interested in, such as dentistry, pharmaceuticals, oncology, etc. This module relies a lot on memorization games and study, as well as a review of general Spanish grammar and vocabulary. It is the most basic building block for any medical Spanish course.

Another module is The Medical Consultation in Spanish. This module is intended for those seeking to better their communication skills with Spanish-speaking patients. It covers topics related to relaying information to patients, such as the introduction to the patient, questions to ask for the patients medical history, how to conduct an examination of the patient’s current problem and how to express the conclusions the medical professional arrives at so that the patient can understand. This module is aided by a fair bit of situational role play, as well as grammar and vocabulary reviews.

A third module we offer is The Medical Conference. Medical professionals often assist conferences and present their research throughout the world. This module is focused on coaching our students on how to present to a Spanish-speaking audience, and how to interact with Spanish-speaking colleagues. Through a variety of presentations, feedback and role play simulations, in this module, students will learn how to present their research to large groups of people and how to converse with other professionals in social situations. Additionally, due to the nature of this module, we include our regular travel vocabulary topic, which we always use in our group classes. This helps students prepare for situations they may encounter when travelling to a Spanish-speaking country for a conference, such as ordering at restaurants, asking for directions from locals, shopping, talking to staff at events or hotels, and navigating flights and travel in a different language.

These are just a few examples of the modules we have prepared for our medical Spanish online class. We can also tailor modules according to our students’ needs, and are more than happy to work with our students to create the best and most encompassing syllabus for their particular situation.

We encourage all of our students to let us know what they are looking for when learning medical Spanish online, and we are very prepared to meet their needs, having had so much experience with our in-person classes already. An additional language is always a great asset for any job, and Spanish is spoken in twenty-two countries over four continents, maximizing the future possibilities for our students even further.

Learn Spanish: Group Classes vs. Private Classes

Did you know….Spanish is the second most spoken language in the world. With over 460 million native Spanish speakers across the globe, it’s no secret that learning Spanish can increase your job prospects and make communication while traveling a whole lot simpler. The most recommended way to learn a foreign language is to study abroad in a Spanish speaking country and fully immerse yourself in the culture and language. Taking Spanish classes in Argentina in the cosmopolitan city of Buenos Aires is a great way to throw yourself into the language learning experience and connect with some 3 million of those native Spanish speakers.

5 Reasons Taking a Spanish Language Exam is a Great Investment

While you’re on the journey towards mastering your Spanish, there comes a point where it’s not enough to just be able to communicate. If you’re looking to use Spanish for more professional or academic settings, it’s important that you have your Spanish level officiated. You’ll want to have a certificate that tells the world, and future employers, that your Spanish is great and no one needs to question your ability. Much like a university degree, there are Spanish language exams like the DELE and SIELE that give you an official diploma that certifies your Spanish language level.

If you’re an adult over 30 who has ever thought about learning Spanish abroad, you might be wondering if there are options at language schools for your learning goals. For adult Spanish learners, the thought of taking a break from work, and leaving your family and home behind to study another language might seem extreme. Here at Expanish, we see many adult Spanish learners every week and have yet to meet one who has regretted their decision to go abroad.
