Hello!
For IMGs the language and cultural aspects of the USMLE Step 2 CS can be very challenging. I can help you prepare for that challenge.
My name is David Freyer.
- I’m an American (based in Asia) with more than 20 years’ experience as an English language (ESL) teacher.
- I have been teaching ESL to healthcare professionals for 15 years.
- I have been coaching IMGs on Step 2 CS for 10 years.
- I have also helped many doctors prepare for their interviews during the matching process.
I can help you too!

My thoughts on preparation for
the Step 2 CS
“David truly helped me pass at the first attempt.”
“…all the practical points you need when interacting with native English-speaking patients.”
“I recommended David to my friends… …all of them have passed.”
I am also offering One-on-One Skype (or WeChat) sessions where we can work together
- to improve your phrasing, pronunciation, and body language;
- make your English smoother, and more natural to the American ear;
- and to build your confidence in English communication so you can focus on being a doctor.
I strongly recommend that you practice some cases with me (or another American native-speaker). It’s the only way to find out what might not be working!
The Skype (or WeChat) classes are 30 US$ for 60 minutes.
Please contact me to set up a free Skype (or WeChat) video chat to check me out (no obligation), and see if you’d like to work together to help get you ready for the Step 2 CS.

I’ve made a series of short demonstration videos, about 3 to 6 minutes each, based on the cases in the book First Aid for the USMLE Step 2 CS.
I have videos covering:
- History taking: where I ask all the questions from each case. These videos can give you a clear, correct, and standard way of asking the questions that will appear normal for an American patient.
- Questions and Closure: where I answer the challenging question, and provide a sample closure in simple conversational English.
- I have another group of videos on the aspects of the Physical Exam.
- And finally some General Tips and Practice videos.
Please check out my free videos so you can see exactly what I have to offer.
If you feel that the videos are useful tools to help you prepare, I invite you to become a member to access all my videos. As a member you can view all my videos online for 2, 4, or 6 months.

David is one of the best resources for preparing step 2 CS exam…he can give you advice and ideas on how a doctor should speak and act in American culture circumstances. …you don’t need to be a master in English language to pass step 2 CS, but you need to know what to say and how to say it. And he can help you with that.
