About Health & Doctor dictation
Health & Doctor is a A2 (elementary) English dictation topic for elementary learners who can already follow short, everyday sentences. Feeling ill, at the doctor. Listen to each sentence, type exactly what you hear, and get instant word-by-word feedback that highlights the words you missed. Practising with real, level-appropriate sentences trains your ear, spelling and grammar at the same time.
Examples of what you'll practise
- “I don't feel very well today.”
- “I have a headache and a fever.”
- “You should take this medicine twice a day.”
- “How long have you had this pain?”
- “Get plenty of rest and drink water.”
- “I would like to see the doctor.”
Tips for A2 dictation
- Listen for small function words like “to”, “a” and “the” — they carry little stress and are the easiest to miss.
- Turn on “Repeat” to auto-play each sentence 2–3 times, and use the hint key when you’re truly stuck.
- Review the words you mishear afterwards — spaced repetition brings them back at the right time.
