Good day! Overall I had nice experience staying in Ireland and learning at Atlas language school, the location of the school near the river was very favourable and picturesque. The classes I attended were held in the evening with all the materials and a course book provided, the course itself was pretty challenging but that is what I anticipated. I would like to express my gratitude to the teacher who was leading the course. She always had nice explanations in stock and tailored her teaching language when explaining things in Irish English and moreover she had a good feeling of the speed at which the group could go. I did several tests during the course which also helped me to see where I really am with my studies and progress.
I had to find an accomodation on my own which caused some difficulties but I managed.
Overall I would rate my experience quite highly.

Thanks for the education. I liked the teacher training, teaching materials, game form of learning, they were productive for me. Among the shortcomings are the lack of desks in the new building and the frequent replacement of teachers. In general, I liked the school.

very beautiful experience, excellent school, and very modern method. The teacher was very dynamic and very competent, friendly, and ready to help even after class. I would like to take another course next year because it was my best period of learning English.

I liked the teaching although it wasn’t corresponding me, I booked intensive courses but I have had the normal courses.
The tables were always broken.
I liked also the social activities, I learnt a lot of in these activities.

It was a fantastic experience, very nice activities and interesting and useful classroom lessons

Hi! I really enjoyed my trip in Dublin with Atlas language School
However the school is better for child than teenager and I would prefer to be with adults to study than to be with teen of my age. We were like child( we have to come back with the private and it wasnt allowed to comme back with our own. )
Also the social activity were great but shorter. We have not a lot of time in the museum for exemple. They prefered to let us freetime to make shoppings. But for myself I would prefer to read and enjoy the museum

I recommand this scool because I learned a lot and I want to come back alone in Dublin. Its a lovely town for a student, if you dont care about the weather!

My experience in atlas was unbelievable. I studied during 6 months there. I changed my levels many times to stick with my improvements. Almost all of my teachers were very good and very good persons as well. A lot of activities are proposed during the afternoon or evening, some overnight trips across Ireland. It s a good opportunity to practice English and make a lot of friends from all around the world.
What you need to know going to Dublin is related to the housing prices, they are super high and the ones proposed by the school are following the same trend.

My experience has been very satisfying. Not crowded classes allow individualized teaching. Teachers are kind to students and very helpful persons. I really liked the structure of the school and the availability of common areas for socializing.

I think it was the best choice studying in Atlas Language School. The teachers at the school are really good and you can notice that they really like teaching english. The location of the school its very good as well so it´s really easy get there.

I would recommend the school to other people who want to improve their english in Dublin.

My class was very nice. The number in it allowed me to study in an effective way. Plus the teachers were very nice, funny and chill. It made the atmosphere in the class very relaxed.
The location was perfect because it wasn't too close to the city center and not too far. And it was also very beautiful right by the canal.
The facilities are the thing that disappointed me a little bit. By that I mean the computers were very slow and full of unused things of students that left that there after having used the computer.
The activities were nice but nothing crazy. Plus if you hadn't a friend there it was kind of boring. I think the school should organize group activities of 4 or 6 people with a random formed group for people to meet other people more easily. Because if you don't know anybody, it is not that easy to make new friends.
I wasn't in a house organized by the school because I thought it was a bit expensive. So I looked up for a house on my own and after 2 weeks in a hostel, I found a house in Dublin 12. I was in a room with two Brazilian guys. It wasn't perfect but it was ok just for 2 months.

I worked very hard in my classroom. I liked the teachers and it was very fun because I had a very special birthday with them.
Facilities and activities were also ok.

This trip to Dublin, for me it is a fantastic experience because my English language has improved very much. I met beautiful people like my host family, Andy and Dolores, my friends who come from different countries

I really enjoyed my two weeks in Atlas Language School. I met a lot of amazing people and made new friends from all over the world. Our teachers were very good and funny and our lessons were amazing. I think I improved my English a lot. Activities were great. My host family was great, I couldn't have better. I'm glad I was able to meet them.

I really enjoyed my overall experience in Atlas, and I would recommend it to everybody who wants to improve and study English. The teachers and the classes were always good. The only thing I would have loved more is if there were some sports activities with the school. Everything else was perfect.

I liked the school, but I didn't like the host family.

It has been a great trip so far. The best choice I have ever made is coming to Atlas - it is the best language school ever!

I had classes with Atlas Language School and stayed at a homestay. I'm really satisfied with my experience.

The school location was good. It took about 15 minutes to walk to the city centre, and it was a nice place near the river. There was also a bike station next to the School.

The classes were very interesting and dynamic. There were people from all over the world, so we learned about different cultures and the English language as well.

In my opinion, all the staff were kind and friendly, and were concerned about how we felt. The teachers were quite good too. Heather and Ian were above all, in my opinion. They were really interested in our learning and I was never bored in their classes.

In addition, there were a lot of extra-curricular activities in the afternoon, evening or during the weekend. Some of them were free, while some cost a small sum of money.

My host was lovely. I applied to have a vegetarian diet and she tried to cook different kinds of food for me. Moreover, she tried to talk slowly in order for me to understand her, and she usually corrected my mistakes.

My homestay was near the school, about 20 minutes walking from there.

I am delighted with my choice. If and when I would want to improve my English again, I'll choose Atlas School again.

Sorry, I am so busy with my work, in Denmark I can't spend so much time writing to you. It is still difficult for me to express my thoughts in English but I 'd like to assure you that every every thing was perfect and I did enjoy all.
I didn't take part of social activities (no time for that!)

I liked pretty much everything, the host family I lived with were some of the nicest people I've met and I'm still in contact with them. The classes were meant to teach us and also have us interact with other students of the same level. We had tests every Friday to check our progress and the teachers kept track of our improvements.

They had activities everyday, from extra classes (like public speaking, or "English around the world" where they taught us some differences in the language in different countries) and trips. Normally there were local tourist trips on Wednesdays, and on the weekends there were trips all around Ireland. The only problem I saw on these trips was that there were a limited amount of people that were allowed to go, so you had to have the money ready to pay on Monday or Tuesday so you were on the list. (I can't blame them though, I can see the problems lending the money or letting people pay after would bring.)

Once I heard a rumour about a host family stealing money from their student, but as I recall, the problem was fixed right away and those guys are no longer a host family.

The location was perfect. It was pretty much in the center, it had a bus stop on the corner, and was close to the Luas (the metro/subway). It was also close to most of the host families' houses.

I remember once we had a problem with an activity. The driver of the bus preferred to take us to a not-so-cool town instead of staying on a beautiful Irish landscape. We stayed in the landscape for around 20 minutes and we sat on benches in the town for like an hour. (I think it had to do with the driver's allowed driving hours, but having known the driver from pretty much all the previous activities I thought he would listen to our complaints. He was a nice guy though.)

The facilities were great, having perfect-sized classrooms, a cafeteria, a study room, a computer lab and many other cool school rooms, but I went in the winter and in some classrooms the radiators weren't working so the people were kind of freezing. Lucky for me, a guy in my class complained a few days before I arrived, so it wasn't a problem for me.

Long story short, it was amazing, I really had to make an effort to remember those details that I didn't like but my ratings above say everything.

P.s. The dates below aren't exact, because I don't remember the exact dates right now, but they are really close to the exact ones.

Classes were really cool and amazing, teachers were friendly, and the activities were very interesting!
I liked everything. In my opinion there were no dislikes.
We went to many sights in Ireland.
I'll never forget Atlas Language School!

All of the teachers in the school were fun. The classes are very diverse. My homestay family was attentive to me.

I really enjoyed my stay in Dublin. My host-family was really kind to me, I had a big bedroom and the house was clean and spatially. I felt like home.
I also liked the school and the teachers were all friendly. I think that we played too much games. I didn't really understand if it helped to improve our english. It seemed a little bit as if it wouldn't be taken really seriously. I preferred to speak a little bit more, maybe about facts, and to have discussions.
Another thing that I didn't like was that the activities in the afternoon were often repeated. I for example went 4 times to the wax museum, but I didn’t really have the opportunity to go to the seaside, that was a pity. I was really bored and also a little bit annoyed.
I liked the excursions on Saturday!
I would have preferred if we had had more free time, maybe in the afternoon to go for a walk in the city center or explore Dublin.
But time has gone really quickly and I made a lot of friends. I would return if I had the possibility!
