Full-time ALI students receive 20 hours of classroom instruction a week from highly experienced and professional instructors.
|
| The Daily Classes |
| ALI offers three levels of instruction (basic, intermediate, and advanced) in writing, speaking/listening, and grammar. Reading instruction is offered at four levels. A full-time ALI student attends one fifty-minute class daily in each of the four skill areas. |
| Listening Lab |
| In addition, students also receive two hours a week of less formal instruction through ALI's listening lab. When enrollment permits, students also meet for two hours weekly of conversation with a native speaker, usually a UT student. |
| Small Classes |
The average class size in a recent term at the ALI was approximately 7 students. This may go up in the future, but will normally not exceed 12. Because of the excellent student-teacher ratio, students get individual attention from their instructors when they need it and have an excellent environment for language learning.
