Put simply, everything sent over WIFI can be seen by anyone with a WIFI adapter that support promiscious mode, but whether they can make anything of the packets is up to whether encryption is being used on the wireless access point or not.

No offence but if you can't understand the WIFI wiki page then it'll be hard for me to explain the types of encryptions and their key lengths etc,,
