Abstract: Language training for non-English proficient speakers is provided by an optimized language training work plan which enables a student to improve their effectiveness in working with specialized English language materials. Specialized English materials or authentic recordings/transcriptions of communication in the workplace is analyzed to determine its complexity against a recognized standard and generate a registry of skills. The measuring of the language complexity of authentic English materials allows work streams correlated to the statistical probability of a student achieving the desired level of proficiency to be developed in the generation of appropriate training content. Based upon an assessment of the students language skill level a work plan is created and applicable content is delivered to a content player through a network. The content provides the ability to improve various aspects of language fluency in relation to specialized content.
