I first and foremost wish to thank all ATC's for your vigilance, competence and contributions to a pilot's safety and guidance. I am a new aspiring wannabe pilot, very soon I will be entering flight triaining. I have had the opportunity to hear the "Jargon", of aviation. I am pretty fluent in aviator language; however I have a hard time understanding the transmission, I have to hear it a few good times to catch what was said. Are there any advice, to improving my ability to receive transmissions during ATC communications? I hope this question isn't stupid b/c ultimately I suppose it can be a hearing problem.
