Comments:
Our school in Connemara is located in the impressive country area next to the Connemara National Park and Diamond Mountains, beside the sea and near the village of Letterfrack, in the lovely region of Galway.
This is a family run school, and we specialize in English for children and families, using a range of modern didactic practices.
The groups are of a reduced size, maximum 12, and we take advantage of the environment around us to do many practical activities in which the students are immersed in natural English.
We teach our students about Ireland, having them learn Irish dance, poetry, music and art.
The calm and friendly environment is ideal for young learners as young as 3 and since our students are accommodated in the village, they get to know the local people and really experience life and age old traditions in this quaint part of Europe. In the afternoons and evenings, students of all ages take part in our sports and cultural activity programme, including pony-riding, canoeing, dancing and having barbecue parties.
Our teachers are all qualified and experienced and they take part fully in all our activities making it a real English led immersion programme.
