Examining English language skills in first-year university students
Original language description
The paper presents the outcomes of a quantitative study analyzing the level of English Language skills assessed by NATO STANAG 6001 examination. The research examines Standardized Language Profiles in the English Language in 291 first-year students at the University of Defence in Brno in the academic year 2019/2020. The aim of the paper is to identify their weakest skills and to compare their representation between students at two faculties, and men and women. The outcomes show that the results in productive skills, Speaking and Writing, are significantly worse than the results in receptive skills, Listening and Reading, at both faculties. The weakest skill is Writing, followed by Speaking. There are differences in the representation of the weakest skills between technically-oriented and leadership-oriented students, as well as between female and male students. The outcomes should influence language teaching at all stages of education in favour of developing productive skills.
