Medical Dutch from day one
Medical Dutch for doctors, dentists and nurses moving to the Netherlands: from your first word to the level the BIG register asks for. Twenty-five minutes a day, in the language of the ward, the consultation room and the handover.
Anamnesis, ward conversations and shift handovers (overdracht), with audio for every sentence, slow and at normal speed.
Symptoms, treatment and the words of the ward, not of the phrasebook.
Interactive spoken repetitions with audio checks. Lessons unlock step by step as each day is completed.
Four steps, one course
The BIG register asks for B2+ from a fixed list of certificates. This course runs the whole way there, in one repetition schedule: a word from the medical material sits in the same system as a word from lesson one.
-
A0 → B1
40 units, from the first word
Greeting a patient, the body, complaints, the shift, the handover. First unit free, no account.
-
B1 → B2
16 units and a B2 trial test
The Dutch health system, referral, feedback, the conversation that carries a consultation.
-
B2 → B2+ arts
The consultation room
“Geen antibiotica, wel een vangnet”, slecht nieuws, twijfel van de patiënt, het gesprek over het levenseinde.
-
B2 → B2+ tandarts
The chair
Pijn en angst, het behandelplan, de kosten, de patiënt die iets anders wil dan u voorstelt.
The exam itself is taken elsewhere: we prepare for the level, not for one provider.
