|
|
I have a wonderful private student, an M.D. who's at a pretty advanced level in all skills. He asked me yesterday if I could help him learn expressions and sentences in English he would use as part of a "consulta"with a patient. Could anyone direct me to a website dealing with English for medical professionals?
�Mil gracias! |

I thought that there might be something I could use on the Teacher Forums, but I decided to post my query first here on the Mexico Forum, where I have on-line (and in person) friends.
Thanks, again! |

Yes, I'm in Mexico City. There's no danger that my student will forsake me for a language school; he enjoys a one-one arrangement because this way he can study whatever he wants, rather than following a school's pre-set curriculum. And a big part of what he wants to do is have the chance to talk to a native speaker (me) a couple of hours a week in a relaxed, real setting (my living room). |
