Language Awareness Course
Open to all English language teachers.
This is a great opportunity to improve your knowledge of English grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. Along with the language development sessions, you will be immersed in an English-speaking environment for the entire trip.
In Ireland we work hard but we also know how to relax. When you are not in the college improving your teaching you will be exploring Ireland. Whether it's world heritage site Newgrange , the world famous Riverdance show or a quiet pint of Guiness listening to traditional Irish music in the pub, this will be a trip to remember.
