Student reviews about "Intensive English Course IE26" at ATC Language Schools
Elena
"Afternoon classes in the intensive course were not well planned, lack of clarity in objectives and programs"
Carla
"It is a good course, I would suggest have different teachers in the morning and in the afternoon in order to learn in different ways."
Maria Elena
"Very good teacher (Nina)"
Liliana
"the course was well run. You have to be lucky to come across a good teacher because not everyone is at the same level. I would not recommend the intensive course because the afternoons turned out to be heavy and unstructured."

“I really liked the organisation and also the option to switch to another class at any time.”
“The lessons were very monotonous. Every day was the same as the previous one. We always did exercises from the book, first on our own, then in a small group and finally in a large group. This meant that every exercise, no matter how small, took forever. There was also no discipline in the group, we ate, slept and played with our mobile phones.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: It was okay.

“I would enrich the programme with afternoon activities to foster acquaintance between students from different countries; the school could also think about fostering mutual acquaintance between teachers attending courses under the Erasmus programme”

“The school manager was very attentive and helpful”
“The school boasts courses for all levels but offers little support for those at basic level. The presentation on the website is not very adherent to the reality of the school especially on the presentation of the premises, the first impact is not very positive, you would expect more.”
Insider tip: “The general level of the school is good but you have to 'stumble' upon the right teacher. The presentation on the website is not very close to reality.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: the course was well run. You have to be lucky to come across a good teacher because not everyone is at the same level. I would not recommend the intensive course because the afternoons turned out to be heavy and unstructured.
Other comments: the school is located in the centre of Dublin, so the location is good but the premises are cramped, it is situated in a 4-storey building and the lift is only available for teachers. The cleanliness of the toilets is not always good.

Student reviews about Student Residence
Elena
"The residence is very nice and very convenient. Little cleanliness of the common parts: gym, kitchen
Rosmarie
"We had the intention of cooking, but we decided not to, as the state of cleanliness in the kitchen was very poor. Even after a complaint, nothing changed. The lounges are great and everything else is fine.
Liliana
"Sheets were provided but very worn (almost ripped out) I had to ask several times for a change. The room was not very clean, as was the shared kitchen which had no windows. The receptionist was not very nice. If there are needs it is difficult to communicate with someone.
