    How it works

    Three simple steps. The whole method is built around one idea: every mistake should teach you something you remember next time.

    1. Listen

    A natural French voice reads a sentence aloud, at a pace you control. You can replay it as many times as you need — just like a real handover.

    2. Write

    You type the full sentence yourself. Writing — not tapping multiple-choice answers — is what actually trains accurate spelling and grammar.

    3. Understand

    You get an instant correction that shows each mistake, the right form, and the rule behind it — in clear English-friendly explanations, so it sticks.

    With a free account, your recurring mistakes are turned into short personalised lessons and exercises — so you work on your weak points.

    Made for the way nurses actually write

    Real clinical French

    The dictations are built around the writing you do on the job — transmissions, care notes, observations and protocols — so the practice transfers straight to the ward.

    For foreign-trained nurses & students

    Whether you trained abroad and are moving to France, or you are a nursing student strengthening your written French, the levels adapt to where you are now.

    France, Quebec, Belgium, Switzerland

    You practise standard written French — the spelling and grammar that count everywhere French is spoken in healthcare, not regional slang.

    Speaking French and writing it correctly are two different skills. On a ward, a misspelled note or a wrong agreement in a patient record is not just embarrassing — it can change the meaning. That is why generic conversation apps fall short for healthcare professionals: they never train you on the page.

    DictéePro takes the opposite approach. You write full French sentences drawn from real nursing situations, and every mistake comes back to you with the rule that explains it. Over a few weeks of short sessions, the spelling traps and grammar agreements that used to slow you down become automatic.
