Thematik

The aim of the course is to prepare students to acquire skills and competences necessary in their everyday communication as physicians, improving their communication skills by the use of medical improvisation and also to improve their English for medical purposes. Medical Improv is the practice of improvisational theater philosophy and techniques applied to the unique challenges and environment of healthcare. It helps students to think out of the box while staying in the moment to turn them into sharper listeners, better collaborators and more empathic people. it forces them to think on their feet, which is important as physicians need to prepare for the unpredictable. It helps students to discover interpersonal strengths and shortcomings through the power of improvisation while they practice their verbal skills in English at the same time.
