My teacher Orla was amazing! I learned so much from her. She has a vast cultural knowledge, which she uses to create unique examples of phrases and contexts. She was definitely one of the best teachers I've ever had.

I had a wonderful learning experience, without a doubt the best school in Cork!
My teacher Rebecca always handled the class exceptionally well, teaching us what was important, and bringing fun into the lessons when needed. Every one of her classes was an unforgettable experience. Moreover, she always made sure that everyone had the chance to speak and practice their skills.

Since I started studying English at the Cork English Academy, I am not afraid to speak anymore. So, I am improving a lot in speaking and writing.
I chose Cork because I wanted to be immersed in the Irish culture and also because there are many beautiful places to visit.
My favorite thing about Cork is the weather. Because you don’t have to do a year to see the four seasons. Every day is spring, summer, autumn and winter.

I couldn’t have got off to a better start; my classmates and teacher made me feel great. Day after day I felt more comfortable and confident to speak English.
I thought to myself. ''Chusa, this works!'' when I realized that the vocabulary and expressions that I had learnt in the school, were used every day, in every place. So I heard and I used them a lot.

IELTS Academic Course
Thanks to the course I have scored 8 in Academic IELTS. This is a major event for my career because it is a mandatory condition to apply for medical exams.
I currently have a full time job as a Sanctuary Fellow at UCC and the improvements in my English are helping me a lot in my everyday activities both inside and outside the workplace.
Throughout the course itself and general lessons I have attended I have met a number of different teachers, and every single one of them was doing as much to help me as possible.
They were not only friendly and kind as people, but highly professional as teachers and tutors. I can not thank them enough. Their dedication had a huge impact on my score.

Monterrey, Mexico
I chose Cork because it’s not a big city but still has a lot going on, such as festivals, parades, farmer’s markets, theaters, concerts, etc.
The locals are very chatty and friendly, something I didn’t expect at all but that’s how I get to improve my listening skills.
