Content and language integrated learning (CLIL) is an evidenced approach focused on the teaching content in which the foreign language is learnt implicitly. The aim of this study was to determine nursing student satisfaction with a clinical skills course taught in English in a non-English speaking country applying CLIL approach. A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted using a self-reported anonymous questionnaire administered to students who had completed the course in the 2016/17 academic year (n=76). It included 42 questions, of which 35 were closed-ended 5 point Likert scale and the remainder open-ended. Open-ended questions were analysed using thematic analysis and closed-ended questions using SPSS 21.0 software. Students did not perceive the lessons in English as a barrier to acquisition of knowledge and clinical skills (mean 1.33; SD 1.90), and they were satisfied with the lessons received (mean 3.88; SD 1.76). Just a few students (4; 3.04%) had difficulties following the content. Most students considered receiving lessons in English to add value to their training process (mean 4.04; SD 2.35), and almost all agreed it would benefit them in the future (mean 4.39; SD 1.90). CLIL approach should be maintained in future courses due to the evidenced benefits.
