American Language Academy – India Center
American Language Academy (ALA) is pleased to announce our partnership with Golden Path of Noida, Delhi-NCR, India. Our partnership will promote long-term and effective operations to develop schools to teach English as a second language, in-service teacher education and continuing development programs, camp programs, and other education services in India and at our Greensboro, North Carolina headquarters.
The partnership with ALA is a natural expansion of Golden Path’s full spectrum of education services with flexible and efficient services under one roof. The services Golden Path provides are of a high standard, friendly, and professional.
ALA has pathway agreements with over 80 universities in the United States. We are expanding our pathway programs into other English-speaking countries. Students who learn in ALA – India schools in India will be able to attend universities with our pathway partners in India and in Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.
ALA President Yuni Nguyen observed in her recent visit to India that college test preparation courses are popular in India, but Advanced English programs like ALA’s are not taught. ALA’s advanced program teaches students more than English language skills. It teaches students the academic language needed for study at institutions of higher education in English-speaking countries. Students learn critical thinking and problem-solving skills, critical listening and reading skills, research skills, and expository and argumentative academic writing. Students also learn how to engage in the academic tasks they will have to perform in an English-speaking university environment and how to interact with professors and fellow students and carry out academic work in culturally appropriate ways.
