Students enroll in AEI's Intensive English Program to improve their English for flight training. At the same time, students will study aviation English as an elective to learn aviation vocabulary and flight training concepts.
Students will be tested at the start of the aviation english training program to determine their English proficiency level, and the amount of English language required during the program depends on a student's incoming level.
Each level requires 8 weeks to complete.
The Private Pilot License (PPL) allows students to operate a small aircraft as either a pilot-in-command or co-pilot. It's the first step towards a career as a commercial pilot.
American English Institute students will receive ground training and flight training classes with AEI's flight training partner, World Wide Wings, to earn their PPL.

Instrument rating (IR) certifies a student can pilot an aircraft through instrumentation alone. Certification includes a written, oral, and flight test with a certified instructor.
A commercial pilot license (CPL) allows you to fly aircraft for compensation for commercial airlines, cargo and charter flights, agriculture, and more. The single and multi-engine add-ons provide students with additional qualifications.
The program takes 3 to 6 months, depending on students' starting level of proficiency.
