Narrative:
The aircraft was operated as a training flight in order to prepare a new hire first officer candidate for the south.I.C. Proficiency check. We were on an IFR clearance and were in the process of doing multiple non-precision approachs along with missed approach procedures. The approach we were doing at the time of the event/situation was the VOR runway 12 approach at alo. My student was having trouble with non-precision and single engine missed approachs on the previous lesson. Approach control issued an amended missed approach clearance, which was a left turn to a 360 degree head and climb to and maintain 2900' MSL. On the final segment of the approach, my student got well below min speed. The large application of power to correct this resulted in a yawing action to the right (one engine simulated failed) which the student failed to correct with rudder. At the missed approach point, the student did not comply with the amended missed approach clearance. As a result, we did not turn left, we were still too slow and yawing slightly to the right. The aircraft was rapidly coming in conflict with aircraft in the local pattern on a different runway. I got the aircraft in a safe confign and in compliance with ATC instructions. I allowed the student to get into this situation far too deeply. By letting the student 'dig himself a hole,' I jeopardized the safety of other aircraft as well as my own. I should have missed the approach much sooner. I must balance realistic training with safety and consideration of other aircraft.

Title: TRAINEE ON A COMMUTER MDT LOST ACFT CONTROL AND FAILED TO FOLLOW GO AROUND CLRNC.
Narrative: THE ACFT WAS OPERATED AS A TRAINING FLT IN ORDER TO PREPARE A NEW HIRE F/O CANDIDATE FOR THE S.I.C. PROFICIENCY CHK. WE WERE ON AN IFR CLRNC AND WERE IN THE PROCESS OF DOING MULTIPLE NON-PRECISION APCHS ALONG WITH MISSED APCH PROCS. THE APCH WE WERE DOING AT THE TIME OF THE EVENT/SITUATION WAS THE VOR RWY 12 APCH AT ALO. MY STUDENT WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH NON-PRECISION AND SINGLE ENG MISSED APCHS ON THE PREVIOUS LESSON. APCH CTL ISSUED AN AMENDED MISSED APCH CLRNC, WHICH WAS A L TURN TO A 360 DEG HEAD AND CLB TO AND MAINTAIN 2900' MSL. ON THE FINAL SEGMENT OF THE APCH, MY STUDENT GOT WELL BELOW MIN SPD. THE LARGE APPLICATION OF PWR TO CORRECT THIS RESULTED IN A YAWING ACTION TO THE R (ONE ENG SIMULATED FAILED) WHICH THE STUDENT FAILED TO CORRECT WITH RUDDER. AT THE MISSED APCH POINT, THE STUDENT DID NOT COMPLY WITH THE AMENDED MISSED APCH CLRNC. AS A RESULT, WE DID NOT TURN L, WE WERE STILL TOO SLOW AND YAWING SLIGHTLY TO THE R. THE ACFT WAS RAPIDLY COMING IN CONFLICT WITH ACFT IN THE LCL PATTERN ON A DIFFERENT RWY. I GOT THE ACFT IN A SAFE CONFIGN AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ATC INSTRUCTIONS. I ALLOWED THE STUDENT TO GET INTO THIS SITUATION FAR TOO DEEPLY. BY LETTING THE STUDENT 'DIG HIMSELF A HOLE,' I JEOPARDIZED THE SAFETY OF OTHER ACFT AS WELL AS MY OWN. I SHOULD HAVE MISSED THE APCH MUCH SOONER. I MUST BALANCE REALISTIC TRAINING WITH SAFETY AND CONSIDERATION OF OTHER ACFT.
