Accommodation

Host family
The Irish are renowned for their sense of hospitality. Living with then will allow you to make rapid progress in English and to familiarise yourself with the local culture. The families are mostly situated in the south part of Dublin, just like the school. They live in residential areas, often in houses with gardens. The students stay in single rooms with half board provided.

Residence "Charleston Road Apartments"
The residence proposed by our partner school is located to the south of Dublin city, in a district which is very popular with students. It will only take you 7 minutes by tram or 20 minutes by foot to reach the course centre and the heart of the city. The bedrooms are situated in a ravishing 19th century building which has been entirely renovated. The single or double bedrooms (in which case the booking must be made for the two people at the same time) all have a private bathroom, a kitchenette and a corner lounge with television. A very pleasant garden is situated behind the building and there are parking spaces for cars and bicycles. Bedlinen is provided, but not bath towels. The bedrooms are only cleaned when the residents leave. There is free Internet access via WiFi throughout the building. You will have access to a free laundry room.

Leisure

The school offers a varied program of leisure activities that showcases the numerous riches of the Irish culture while creating an environment that is conducive to meeting other students and practising the language outside of class. Students can discover the city, which is considered to be one of Europe’s most dynamic capitals, at their own pace, with its hundreds of pubs and a rapidly expanding music scene. The contrast is even more surprising once you are outside of Dublin: the Irish countryside offers spectacular scenery, studded with legends and the magic of days gone by.

Testimonial

Fabrice Faure I've studied in English before with the agency ESL, so I wished to renew this experience in Ireland. I felt like discovering Dublin after receiving information about this city. I have choose to stay in a host family in order to practice english as often as possible. My family was very hospitable and friendly. I've made a lot of progress in speaking thanks to competent and very nice teachers! Moreover, Dublin is a very pleasant and nice city where everything is feasible! You can meet many young people form different countries. So, this experience will be unforgettable for me!
