The dialogue between the children and the guest was pleasant and impressive. To the question “How did medicine begin for Mynzhylky?” the doctor replied: “When I was in the 6th grade, for some reason I had to see a doctor. A friend of our family worked as a surgeon. I was amazed by the manner of his speech, richness of language, demeanor and ability to make an accurate diagnosis, which made me dream of becoming a doctor when I grow up. ”
“Neurosurgery is a difficult and very interesting profession,” explained Mynzhylky Sailauovich. “It has elements of traumatology, general surgery.”
The doctor told how he independently learned English, participating in complex operations: “In 2008 I came across A. Dragunkin’s book“ Fast English for energetic lazy people ”, and after reading it, my interest in the English language increased. It took about 5 years to learn the language. When I came to Germany, I needed to improve my English for a month in order to speak with a foreign doctor. Soon I was able to not only speak English fluently, but also master difficult professional terms, ”he said.
