American Language Institute

Help learners find their voice in academic life.

Following a seminar. Asking for clarification. Presenting a reasoned argument. Begin with the situations your learners need English to handle, then design the learning around them.

Build the program around your requirements.

Curriculum — Map relevant language objectives to your program.

Teaching — Agree contact hours and the roles of your staff and ALI.

Practice — Select available digital activities that reinforce instruction.

Assessment — Define starting-level and progress-review checkpoints.

Reporting — Agree who can see which learner information and how it supports teaching.

Begin with a defined pilot.

Choose a defined learner group, a delivery period and a small set of learning goals. Agree staffing, participation expectations and review tasks before the first session. Examine learner work and delivery feedback before deciding on expansion.

What you can review before committing.

Ask for relevant curriculum samples, a walkthrough of supported learner activities and available reporting. Review the proposed delivery schedule, implementation responsibilities and commercial terms before agreeing the scope.

Prepare for the first conversation.

Which learners need support? What academic tasks do they struggle with? How does English teaching fit their existing timetable?

Let’s discuss a practical starting point.

Tell us about your learners and the change you want to make.
