Student’s feedback Alex Strother (Year 1, Medicine) talks about the Students without Borders experience: The workload is very fair and homework from the course has never interfered with medicine work. The atmosphere in classes is very relaxed too, which is great. Something that I have especially enjoyed has been getting to know students in other year groups and on different courses, While providing a slight break from medicine, at the same time everything we learn in class is very relevant, and I do feel that through researching all of the conditions or organ systems we studied, my wider knowledge of medicine in English has also improved. I would 100% recommend the course to anyone and hope to keep it up next year! Heather Goodacre – Year 2 Medical Student Students without borders is a great course to immerse yourself in Spanish vocabulary and scenarios that otherwise you may not get the opportunity to learn. It is a course that focuses on medical Spanish: learning about conditions; ways to approach consultations and extensive specific vocabulary. Throughout the course, all aspects of language are taught – speaking, listening, reading and writing. Languages for All Languages, Cultures & Societies
