MOOCs Feb 1, 2016

Check out MOOC-platforms (MOOC=Massive Open Online Course), if you are interested in monolingual English courses. There are a lot of MOOCs on medical subjects, and all of them are for free (if you do not buy any certificate, that is). Class-central.com offers an overview of available courses at many different platforms.
