Our IEP offers three courses in all levels of instruction. Our three courses are:
Writing and Grammar
Listening and Speaking
Reading and Vocabulary
We offer five levels of instruction, ranging from very little English to preparation for graduate studies.
Students who successfully complete the ALI’s Level One courses will be able to read and comprehend sentence-level and short-paragraph descriptions of familiar situations and be able to communicate, orally and in writing, in areas of personal needs, immediate surroundings, and some social situations such as shopping, ordering food, and most other basic needs.
Students who successfully complete the ALI’s Level Two courses will be able to read and comprehend clearly-connected and organized texts, and students will be able to communicate in writing and orally in a variety of basic and social communicative needs, including participating in simple conversations on topics beyond most immediate needs. Students at this level develop a beginning competency in understanding texts written for a general audience.
Students who successfully complete the ALI’s Level Three courses will be able to read and comprehend more extended texts with an ability to recognize main ideas and clear supporting ideas. Students begin expressing cohesiveness in multi-paragraph writing, and are able to communicate orally in most social situations and, though with some difficulty, sustain a conversation related to a variety of social situations, and read a range of texts written for a general audience.
Students who successfully complete the ALI’s Level Four courses will be able to communicate orally in almost all social situations in a highly interactive manner, read texts written to the general population at the post-secondary level, and meet college-level writing requirements. Students are able to employ various rhetorical styles in writing such as cause-and-effect, narration and logical division. Students may be ready to begin academic work at the post-secondary (university/college) level upon completion of level four ALI courses.
