How to study radiotelephony

Learn the shape of each call first
Who you are calling, who you are, where you are, what you want. Most errors are items in the wrong place or missing, not wrong words.
Say it out loud
Reading phraseology silently is not the same skill as transmitting it. Practise speaking, even when you type in the simulator.
Read back values, not sentences
Runway, heading, level, QNH, frequency and squawk are what must come back. The words around them can vary.
Revisit mistakes on a schedule
A question you missed today is worth more tomorrow and next week than a new one now. Let spaced revision handle the timing.

Official and reference sources

These are the documents our explanations cite. Always use the current official version, and rely on the regulator’s website for examination rules, fees and schedules. Where we have not been able to verify a document’s final text, we say so.
