Stergios. Dentist, Belgium.

He did not yet have the French language level required to practise in Belgium. Today, he is working as a dentist in a private clinic.

Stergios started his courses at Andreea Berkhout Academy with a B1 level of French, which was not sufficient to practise dentistry in Belgium.

At the same time, he was working as a volunteer at the Military Hospital in Thessaloniki, balancing clinical practice with intensive language study.

In just a few months he reached:

  • C1 in French

  • C1.2 in professional dental language

His motivation for choosing this profession goes back to childhood: his mother is a pediatrician, and his own dentist was the doctor who inspired him the most.

Today, Stergios is already working in a private dental clinic in Belgium, and his international career is just beginning.
