English Studies for Aviation (ESA)
WIE’S English Studies for Aviation course has
been developed specifically for people who work
in the Aviation industry and who need to comply
with the International Civil Aviation
Organisation's (ICAO's) language proficiency
requirements.
The course is designed
to assist aviation students to reach the
required ICAO Level 4 of English language
proficiency, while building confidence with
conversational skills and technical language
needed for use during training and active duty.
Covering a range of subjects associated with the
Aviation industry, Pilots and Air Traffic
Controllers in particular will find the course
useful for improving their English, but anyone
working in aviation - ground staff, emergency
services, or administrators, for example - who
want to improve their English ability, will
benefit from the English for Aviation course as
well.
As aviation industry staff are required to
communicate effectively in a wide range of
situations, from dealing with air traffic
control, interacting with flight crew and being
able to describe flight conditions in detail,
themes covered as part of the course will focus
on equipping the students with the skills needed
to effectively converse in an English language
environment within the context of aviation.
The course is built around topics and themes
within the context of aviation, with specific
reference to and focus on the skills described
in the ICAO Level 4 Language profile. The course
concentrates on:
·
Pronunciation
·
Structure
·
Vocabulary

Fluency

Comprehension
