What is Fachsprachtrainer?

Fachsprachtrainer is an AI-powered training platform for medical German. It helps doctors train their medical language for clinical practice and the Fachsprachprüfung (FSP) — through conversation simulations, Arztbrief exercises, and pronunciation training.

What's the difference from Kenntnistrainer?

Kenntnistrainer prepares for the Kenntnisprüfung — that's about medical knowledge. Fachsprachtrainer focuses on medical language and communication in German. Two different exams, two specialized platforms.

Does the FSP only test language or also medical knowledge?

The FSP primarily tests your ability to communicate medically in German — conversations, documentation, explanations. Basic medical knowledge is assumed, but the exam evaluates your language competence.

What German level do I need to start?

B2 German is recommended. Fachsprachtrainer assesses your medical German and adapts exercises accordingly — from basic communication to exam-ready C1 medical language.

How does pronunciation training work?

You speak medical terms and sentences. The AI analyzes pronunciation, stress, and speech flow and gives instant feedback. Difficult terms are automatically repeated.

Can I practice writing medical reports?

Yes. You receive a clinical scenario and write an Arztbrief. The AI evaluates structure, medical language, grammar, and completeness — and shows improvements sentence by sentence.

How is this different from a regular German course?

German courses teach everyday language. Fachsprachtrainer trains medical communication — history taking, findings discussion, patient counseling, medical reports. Every exercise is medical and exam-relevant.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. You can create an account and explore the product for free. AI practice starts after you activate the Stripe trial or a subscription.

Is Fachsprachtrainer also useful for doctors already working in Germany?

Absolutely. Many users are already working in clinical settings and want to improve their medical communication — ward round language, medical reports, patient counseling. The training is as practice-relevant as it is exam-relevant.

Which medical specialties are covered?

Scenarios cover internal medicine, surgery, emergency medicine, pediatrics, gynecology, neurology, and more. New scenarios are added regularly.
