English in a Hospital Room is a short virtual excursion to a hospital. With the help of this program you can learn vocabulary related to medicine step by step.

In Step 1 you can familiarize yourself with the vocabulary needed in a hospital environment with the help of a picture dictionary. In Step 2 you will dive into a rich spoken language. Your task is to listen to a presentation of the objects in the hospital room and arrange the things in the room according to the instructions given by a native speaker. This makes the material highly interactive as you need to listen carefully to the information given and to follow specific instructions. You can listen to the instructions as many times as you want.

Through the related exercises the listening becomes more effective. In the next steps you get to practice the vocabulary and structures you have heard so far in more detail. English in a Hospital Room includes several different kinds of exercises, which means that you are rehearsing the vocabulary almost without noticing!
