CELTA,IELTS, IDLTM (Dip.TESOL) The Advanced Language Institute empowers thinking through language support. By writing and editing for ALI, you are opening doors. You will improve your own writing, editing, and critical thinking skills and build your international network. All of our Writers and Editors have field-specific qualifications and experience. All of our work is done with high standards of excellence in writing and revision. This Online Course is designed to help ALI editors and writers deliver work with excellent results. It reviews key concepts used in our method and introduces you to ALI‘s frameworks for evaluating and writing draft work for our clients. I look forward to seeing you in the course and personally reviewing your Sample Evaluation soon.

ALI‘s Editing and Writing System
Some of the greatest errors in drafts of all forms come from a lack of knowledge of the normalized language frameworks within a genre or discipline. Yet others come from a missing piece of the core content which goes beyond the proofreading task. The role of the ALI Editor and Writer is to empathize with the author regarding language and find the best solution that fits the author’s goals, as well as help the author to learn to better write and think. This begins with conceptualizing the draft within the selected genre or discipline and repairing or creating content as necessary to meet the goals shared between editor and author. The editing and writing support ALI offers is that all our revisions are: 1)corrective and 2)formative for the original author, and 3)through the dialogic approach both editor and author will together shape the best writings possible.

ALI‘s Evaluation System
It’s not brain science (although we do work with brain scientists). Our editing staff utilize Instant Messaging, Video Conferencing, and Data Sharing across devices and between experts to create a communicative bond between clients, projects, and the ALI team. Having reviewers in the content area with specialist language knowledge provides better draft revisions than having one of the two. It also gives key insights to our clients of their work from multiple angles and is an opportunity for Editors and Writers to network directly with experts.

ALI is a language learning organization
What the experts say: “Companies need to contract with language vendors who specialize in helping employees at various levels of proficiency. The vendors need to be intimately familiar with the company context so that they can guide employees’ learning, from how best to allocate their time in improving skills to strategies for composing s” Tsedal Neeley, Harvard Business School It is your major task as an ALI Writer and Editor to take the draft to completion, which requires you often to “guide” authors on the norms in their contexts and the standards of professional written language.
