Technical Maritime English Foundations

Every vessel, every voyage, and every harbour relies on the precision of technical communication.

Technical Maritime English – Foundations gives you the tools to understand and express the language of the ship – its parts, systems, and operations – with confidence.

This course is designed for anyone beginning or already involved in a technical maritime career, from engineering to maintenance or onboard service. Through clear explanations and guided practice, you’ll build a strong base in specialised terminology and functional language used in day-to-day technical contexts.

You’ll explore how ships are designed, powered, and maintained, while developing your reading, listening, and speaking skills in English. Each lesson connects technical accuracy with real maritime tasks, ensuring that your vocabulary isn’t only learned – it’s used in authentic professional situations.

By the end of this course, you’ll:

• Recognise and use core technical maritime terms and expressions.
• Communicate effectively in everyday engineering and operational contexts.
• Understand the structure, components, and systems that make up a vessel.
• Strengthen your confidence when reading technical documents and safety procedures.

Please note, this is a specialised English language course designed to help you develop and practise your Technical Maritime English skills while gaining a lasting foundation in maritime engineering and ship operations.
