General English - Morning
Dublin
The General English course from IBAT College Dublin is semi-intensive, meaning that you will receive 15 classes every week from their professional teaching staff. This lower number of weekly classes allows students to keep some of their free time for themselves, while also pushing their English skills to the next level.
Class sizes are limited to 15 people per group, so this option would suit those learners who feel comfortable in a medium-sized group setting, where there will be plenty of new faces to meet and practise your English with.
The approach of the school is to mix formal and informal language learning - reading, writing, speaking and listening, with conversation activities in order to reinforce practical skills for everyday situations.
The General English course is a semi-intensive programme that allows you to balance classroom tuition with structured study and free time activities. You will improve your English language ability at a speed you feel comfortable with, while having time to enjoy your destination.
This course is available at all levels from Beginners to Advanced and you will be placed in a class which is suitable for your level. The course focuses on the four main aspects of language: reading, writing, listening and speaking. You’ll also learn vocabulary and grammar, and how to speak in formal and informal discussions and strategies.

You can study either English or Gaelic with your teacher while staying in their family home in Limerick, Ireland. This option will give you 15 fully customised private lessons to improve from per week, not to mention all of the conversation practice you will have with your host family at the dinner table, or in the streets of Limerick.
In the Republic of Ireland, Gaelic continues to see use thanks to the education system’s efforts to preserve this language, so you can encounter many people with whom you can practise the language. However, please note that a high level of Gaelic is not especially common among the majority of people, so you might have to narrow your search for conversation partners by joining clubs, and so on. The common language spoken is English, and if you’re studying this language then you’ll be able to use it everywhere you explore in Limerick.
Your host family provides your full board meal plan, so you can concentrate on your language studies and discovering the city for yourself. If there are any issues that come up during your stay, you can contact HLI’s Local Organiser staff in Limerick.
