Aviation English - Intensive (LIVE virtual classroom)

About

The Aviation English Intensive course builds on the topics, language aspects and skills covered in the Aviation English e-learning course, through controlled practice under the direct guidance of an instructor in a virtual classroom course setting. Our experienced instructors ensure intensive practice of the linguistic aspects and skills with hands-on interactions, exercises, and coaching. The material is presented in an aviation context in realistic situations and will help you develop the skills necessary to deal with the types of content commonly found in aviation training courses and documents such as those produced by ICAO and other aviation-related organizations. Over 10 days you will develop the language skills needed to handle real-life situations arising in everyday aviation operations as well as those needed for training purposes, and to understand aviation-themed documents.
