Preface
The American Language Course (ALC) is a comprehensive, multilevel language program
for teaching English for vocational and professional purposes. It is designed primarily
for intensive English language training in a classroom setting, but can easily be adapted
for slower-paced instruction. The ALC’s curriculum has been developed by the Defense
Language Institute English Language Center (DLIELC), which is a US Department of
Defense school under the operational control of the US Air Force. The primary focus of the
ALC is to provide a language curriculum for a diverse international military population. To
that end, the course includes not only general English topics, but also military topics of a
general nature highlighting the typical language military personnel will encounter in their
professional and vocational career fields. The ALC has, however, also been very successfully
used in non-military learning environments and in US high schools with immigrant student
populations.

To: Jim Fredricks
Subject: The worst day of my life
Dear Henry,
You won’t believe what happened! Last week, I went on a car trip and it was the worst
experience I’ve ever had. First, I forgot to check the air in the tires before I left. After driving for
about an hour, I noticed that one of the tires was almost flat. I checked the spare tire, but it
was also flat. I decided to try and find a gas station to fix the tire. It was starting to get dark,
and I don’t like driving at night, so I began to drive a little faster. After about 5 minutes, I saw a
police car behind me. Can you believe he pulled me over and gave me a speeding ticket!
Things only got worse from there. I finally found a gas station and got the tire fixed. But when I
tried to pay, they told me that they didn’t accept any credit cards! Of course I never carry any
cash. I had to call my brother and wait 3 hours for him to bring me some money. This was the
worst day of my life.
To: Henry Davidson

The American Language Course is a comprehensive, multilevel
program for adults that teaches English for vocational and professional
purposes. The ALC is designed primarily for intensive English language
training in a classroom setting, but it can be adapted for slower-paced
instruction. A significant feature of the ALC is the inclusion of basic
military topics and vocabulary.
Using traditional methods of language teaching as well as contemporary
communicative approaches, the ALC’s presentation is systematic and
carefully sequenced to ensure that learners can build on previously
acquired knowledge. Photographs, illustrations, charts, and tables
explain vocabulary and grammar, while dialogs and student-centered
activities introduce and reinforce language functions and skills. Each
book is supplemented by an instructional package that includes the
following:
• Instructor text
• Student text
• Audio recordings
• Language laboratory activities instructor text with audio scripts
• Language laboratory activities student text
• Computer-delivered interactive multimedia instruction (IMI)
• Quiz kit
• Optional training aids
The ALC’s second edition features a completely revised student text
with an accompanying instructor text. Instructor notes offer detailed
guidelines for presenting classroom exercises, supplemental activities,
and pertinent cultural information. A variety of teaching strategies are
provided to keep students motivated and enliven the classroom.
