If the student would like to start in the Fall, she can join our September 2015 Term. The schedule is not publicized yet, but it would be similar to that of September 2014, posted on your site and attached to this email, to give you an idea. We offer public classes with duration of 6-7 weeks. If she would like to stay for 12 weeks, she can enroll for another half term in public classes after she completes her first public class, or continue to study on private one-on-one basis. The student level can only be determined after the student is assessed. Once the student has confirmed her trip dates, we could give her more definite information on the classes she can enroll in.
We will most likely schedule the August term schedule at the beginning of July.
It is okay if the student needs to miss the first session. A make-up class may be required to make up for the missed material and a reduced additional cost applies in this case.
Any official visa works to register, whether residence or visit.
Yes we offer long-term courses all year round and he is welcome to make his 16 weeks course. However, if he is the only student in the level he will have the half hours of tuition as one-on-one classes and full time of cultural activities.
Our sister school, DEI, offers English tutoring at our shared premises in Dubai.
Unfortunately, we are unable to provide or process any visas for students. Mr. Jalang would have to check with the UAE embassy / consulate in the country he is in regarding the visa requirements based on his nationality. Visit visas are usually offered at the airport for many nationalities. He will need to check if his nationality is among them. If the UAE visa requires a document proving his enrolment at ALC. We can issue a letter after registration is made and we have received the payment to ensure that he is a student at our centre. This letter may be a supporting document, if the consulate requires and confirms this. We suggest a good and immediate follow-up in case the process took time with the authorities.
We are offering a Ramadan term, which is a 4-week course, with the timings mentioned on your site: 9-11 a.m., 12-2:00 p.m. and 4-6 p.m.
Our levels are interrelated, so once a student completes Beginners I, they move to Beginners II. The group classes running are those in July, as displayed on your webpage, and one term in August, which is only Beginners I. Other than these, it would have to be private classes.
We have updated the January/Feb schedule; however with regard to the July schedule, it has not been finalised yet. We will work on uploading a tentative schedule on your site for the coming year by next week.
June 28 – July 16 is the duration of a complete term of Beginners I (Intensive). The class will run every day in 15 sessions. So it would be great if your student attends this whole period. Below are the proposed timing. It would be best if the student chooses 2 preferred timings, in case we do not run all the sections.

S,M,T,W,Th (5 days)

Please see below the course offered for the Ramadan July Term. The visa is granted at the Dubai airport based on nationality. Please ask your student to check regarding her entry prior to booking a flight. We can provide an enrolment letter confirming that she is an ALC student once she is registered.

We don't have any classes commencing on Monday 17th June, I have checked your website and I can't find anything that suggests we would have a class starting on 17th. We don't provide any accommodation for students. Also, we don't have a class running as listed, our Beginners I Intensive Part A commenced on 2nd June and finishes on 12th June and not from 24/6 to 5/7 as mentioned on your webpage.
Yes we will need to schedule an assessment for the student, before she registers to a particular level. If she is in town, please have her contact our office and we will do what is needed.
1. The student will be turning 17 in a month. This means that she can be admitted to ALC and most covered topics are age-appropriate and applicable to him.
2. We have not entered the dates for November 2015 yet as these terms are not yet scheduled in our academic year. The start date and structure however will be very similar to the current November term, which is currently uploaded on your site. Public holidays may vary from year to year and are considered accordingly. The usual start of regular 2-months terms are beginning November, beginning January, March, May etc.. There are also intensive less than one month terms that take place in December, February, April and in the summer, confirmed as per enrolments. All these have been uploaded on your site the past two years and may still show if you need a close idea. Actual dates for next year will start appearing on your site next month.
3. Yes, as of now, the course is still available. (In case the selected timing of the course does not run, the student will be transferred to another timing of the same course within the same dates.)
We will do our best to upload classes for the March/April and May/June
terms some this week, although they are usually confirmed only a few weeks
in advance. Please note that every term is about 7.5 weeks in duration and
would be similar to the schedule currently publicised.
