Now, down to important business. Do you know your autonomous integrity monitor from your airborne data link processor? What do you mean ‘no’? Well, if your knowledge of aviation tertms isn’t up to scratch, China may not be the place to move your TEFL career to the next level, as the country is set to become the next battlefield for aviation English training organisations, according to a top executive from an international language teaching school, and you know how much their opinions are worth.

‘The aviation English training market potential is massive in China given the country’s fast growing commercial aviation market.’

That quote is attributed to a Finian Connolly, CEO of Edgewater College, founded over 15 years ago in Ireland, specialising in aviation English language teaching, as featured in China Daily. If you’re initially as surprised as me to know that there’s a college specialising in aviation English language teaching, you may be dismayed at the sheer number of terms you’ll have to brush up on if you want to branch out into this field of language teaching. If you think you’re already there, click here for a nasty surprise.
