Our course has been designed with the support of medical professionals and language educators and aims at effective, confident communication with patients, fellow doctors, managers and other staff.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Knowledge into Language<\/h4>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This course encourages participants to interact in order to develop their communication skills in authentic situations. It is based around the specific needs of the participants and uses a balance of language analysis, case studies, simulations and presentations. Participants develop fluency, language accuracy and self-assurance in professional and wider contexts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div
