o Aviation English Self-Study Course



Online Learning Management System (LMS)Our Aviation English curriculum is designed to train current and aspiring aviation professionals.

Most of the coursework is designed for 'selfstudy'. Students are registered and trained via one of

our LMS websites. An LMS site hosts all the courses, student registrations, quizzes, and grades.

Our LMS supports audio/visual content as well as Speech Recognition. The speech recognition

module allows automatic evaluation of the speaking abilities of our student.

All courses are divided in small modules/sections. Each of these sections include audio/visual

and graphic content to help out English learners with varying capabilities. The timed quizzes are

also part of the curriculum that help students to keep track of their progress. Some quizzes are

writing exercises that are manually graded by instructors.

As noted above, we also provide speech recognition system for practice of correct and clear

English pronunciation. Ours is the ONLY online training course offering this novel technology for

practicing and getting automatic feedback on the spoken capabilities of our students.

Some students may require oneonone sessions with the instructors. Our instructors maintain

online calendars within the course for the students to book extra help appointments. We have

found that the use of Skype / Google Hangouts for those parts of the course is the most effective

medium.

Aviation English Placement Test

We work with students with varying levels of previously acquired English language

capabilities. We have learned that it is very important that we place our students at the right

level of rigor for two reasons. Firstly, to determine the level of competency and skill they

currently possess and secondly to enable our instructors to plan interactive lessons which aid

the areas of weaknesses and boost overall communication skills. Students not recommended

to enroll in Aviation English courses are asked to take English as a Second Language (ESL)

classes first.

Our Aviation English Placement Test (AEPT) is designed to test students from different angles

with varying levels of difficulty. We test the students for basic and advance grammar, reading

comprehension (see example below), writing abilities, and some advanced level skills. Based

on the outcome of the AEPT, instructors recommend the right course or prerequisite courses.

In most cases the AEPT is the first thing a student will go through.

Sneak Peek: A Module of Aviation English

The course is divided into "Lessons". These lessons

gradually become more complex. Each lesson is

composed of 'bite-sized' sections that provide

manageable work load for self-study.

The sections are

focused on

aviation specific

terms and concepts.

For each lesson individual

sessions can be scheduled

with the instructor for

practice. These

interactive sessions

develop confidence and

provide a chance for the

instructor to identify and

work on areas that need

more work.

Sneak Peek: A Module of ATC 2 Pilot Course

All modules in the courses consist of examples and

scenarios taken from the real world.. Airport plates and

approach plates are extensively used as references.

The

exercises

are accompanied

with interactive

quizzes. These help

the students and their

instructor keep track of

the progress.

Scenarios are

built from describing the

situation, to listening to

ATC, to communicating

back to the ATC in clear

and correct manner.

Students record and review their

pronunciation based on standard

responses. Once satisfied, students, can

press the 'CHECK' button to upload and

check the recording against an 'Expert'

recording.

To help

with the pronunciation, the response

is broken down into individual

phonemes for both the student as

well as the Expert Audio. Students

are given feedback on what part of

the words they need to work on.

The Speech Recognition system

analyzes the student's recording in a

few seconds and responds with a

score. The system also

provides sample

of student recording

analyzed, the reference

'Expert Audio' recording and a

numerical score for both students

and teachers.
