Refresher Course for English Language Teachers

 

Open to all English language teachers.

 

Re-charge your batteries and learn some new ideas. You will not only benefit from the knowledge and experience of our teachers/trainers but also your fellow participants.

 

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.
