English Lessons for Adult Learners

The emphasis is on small class sizes, thereby offering a high quality learning environment.

The maximum number of adult learners per class is 6. In our mini-group classes, the maximum number of students is 3.

From day one, we encourage our students that English is the only spoken language throughout the whole course - not only inside but also outside the classroom. All lessons are taught by native and highly qualified English teachers who all hold a minimum CELTA certificate in teaching English as a second language.

Students can choose between General classes with 20 lessons (15 hours) of English tuition and Internsive classes with 30 lessons (20 hours) of English tuition per week. 

The English spoken in Kilkenny is accent-free and very easy to understand. Lessons take place in modern classrooms in a personal and relaxed atmosphere.

Language courses begin every Monday of the year for all language levels. English lessons are 45 minutes in length. In addition to small group and private instruction, we also offer combination courses. Please note, that classes can also be held in the afternoon during peak season.

Feedback of participants

Thank you for a fantastic stay in Ireland!

I just want to say thank you for everything. I had such a GREAT time in Kilkenny, because the family I lived with was so extremely nice and everyone in school too! This summer was for sure one of the best ones of my life!

Your trips and activities were so well organized, I already recommended you... :D

Great programme!

Just a little note to let you know that my son Benjamin greatly enjoyed his stay in Ireland, he felt he was treated like a king by the host family - he really had only good things to say. 

Such a great experience and I think he will want to return to you to keep improving his English!
