Location: English Path Dublin is located in the south of Dublin, in the seaside neighbourhood of Dún Laoghaire, voted the Best Weekend Destination in the World in 2023. The school overlooks Dublin Bay and is close to interesting historical landmarks including the Cannon from the Crimean War, the Dún Laoghaire East Pier, and the harbour. The area is walkable, with the Bloomfield Shopping Centre just 10 minutes from the school. Surrounding the campus are supermarkets, shops, restaurants, bars, and easy access to train and bus stops, making it simple to explore both the local area and Dublin city centre.

Public transportation: The Dun Laoghaire Train Station is 10 minutes from ISI by foot. From here there are regular trains into the centre of Dublin. This journey takes around 25 minutes. Alternatively, students can use the bus service which takes around an hour.

Local attractions: Most of the major attractions in the city are located within the centre of Dublin. Students can use the public transportation options to arrive into Dublin and from there either walk or use the services in the city.

Course structure: There are general English group courses, evening classes, academic year work and study programmes, IELTS exam preparation courses and private packages. The private classes can be, in general, English or for business students.

School experience: English Path Dublin provides a modern, welcoming environment where students from around the world can learn English while meeting peers from diverse backgrounds and cultures. To enhance learning, the school organises group activities that allow students to practise English in fun and engaging ways while exploring the city. A knowledgeable and experienced customer experience and academic team are always available to support students with their studies or any personal concerns during their time at English Path Dublin.

Student reviews about "Semi-Intensive Morning" at English Path
Claudia 5.0
"It was “test week,” but even that wasn’t so bad, since—for example—in the writing skills class, we were challenged to explore topics where it might take a second thought to come up with an idea."
Claudia 4.0
"Very good, I also had different teachers."
Ulrike 3.0
"Super teachers. Course not designed for me, as long-term students (at least 6 weeks, but usually up to a year) take part and the curriculum is designed for this."

“Motivated, friendly teachers who design varied and creative lessons.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: It was “test week,” but even that wasn’t so bad, since—for example—in the writing skills class, we were challenged to explore topics where it might take a second thought to come up with an idea.
Other comments: The location in Dun Laoghaire is great! The staff and teachers are all very nice.

“The teachers are all very nice and committed. The lessons were varied and interesting. There were lots of opportunities to speak, but writing and grammar were also part of the lessons.”
“The leisure programme is not feasible with a semi-intensive course, as it starts at 12.30 p.m. and the course lasts until 1.30 p.m.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: Very good, I also had different teachers.

“The teachers were very committed and went to great lengths to involve me and cater to my learning needs.”
“The programme was not suitable for me. The school is in the process of reorganising itself and planning 6-week units for long-term students. Basically, it is not planned to only take part for 1 - 2 weeks. My age group is also not (or no longer) included. This information was missing in advance from the school, but also from the agency.”
Insider tip: “Better information, transparency in advance.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: Super teachers. Course not designed for me, as long-term students (at least 6 weeks, but usually up to a year) take part and the curriculum is designed for this.
Other comments: There is room for improvement in terms of organisation. I took 3 placement tests.... My money had disappeared... A bit of a mess for people like me who work and think professionally.

“Very friendly, helpful staff, interesting and varied lessons that cater to individual needs!”
“There are only a few social programs, or some are planned in such a way that you can't participate at all because classes are taking place at the same time.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: Interesting exchange with students from other countries (including non-EU countries).
Other comments: Well organized, but the introduction was more for long-term students (many stay there for many months), which was less relevant for us. However, this meant we missed the first lesson, which was a shame.

“Friendly people, good learning atmosphere, good interaction, many very good and patient teachers, everyone is highly motivated to enable you to have a good stay and to be at your side with words and deeds.”
Insider tip: “Possibility to play volleyball Tuesday evening at a school in Dun Loaghire (a little far from the NCG school but within walking distance).
Find out quickly what options you have für excursions.”
Other comments: For long-term students it is particularly unfortunate to only ever receive paper copies as study material. A workbook would be better and you could see a better concept. It felt like the topics were mixed up and the common thread was missing.

Other comments: It should be called "Language in Dun Laoghaire" - the centre of Dublin is one hour away ... But Dun Laoghaire is nice, by the sea and it has come pubs ... The school is good, the host family accommodations - in regards to tidiness - are beneath contempt. It had to be said although normally, the hosts are very friendly and helpful! Average age around 20, many Brazilians, some Japanese, South Koreans. Besides that, students from France, Spain, Columbia, Netherlands, few Germans (good for me :-) )

“- The teachers and the friendly staff
- The different methods of knowledge transfer”
Other comments: The multi-bed rooms in the hostel are the right choice for short term students. All who wish to stay longer than three weeks should consider to book an individual apartment, a host family, a hostel or a nearby B & B. The highseason is during the summer month, so the classes are always full. If you like it a mor quiet I would rather recommend to go in spring. You could hardly find any Germans there. I appreciated it a lot, because I was forced to communicate in English though. (The period from June to July, 2013, 8 weeks)

The evaluations by students after they complete a course is excellent. The discount for using your website is also a great incentive. It also would be wonderful if the website would include more cities and a bigger selection of schools in each city.

The service of languagecourse.net is great, I booked already 3 schools and I can highly recommend it. In fact, I tell everybody I meet on my journey in South America about this website and how well everything is organized.
Gabriele Ragger verified client
I am very satisfied. I found more/relevant information on your webpage than on the school's website itself. It is the cheapest offer. I'm going to book my next course on your site soon.

You're just great, doing a fantastic job. I'll be back in a couple of weeks and be booking my next stay abroad with you again (as always).

I had excellent support with the school choice and booking. I was grateful knowing that if a problem arose, I had someone to liaise with the school and sort it out. Many thanks

Your service was excellent, really following up and holding my hand.! My older step-brother used your service a few years ago to study Spanish in Salamanca and Granada and we found LanguageCourse.Net so helpful then as well.

Just keep up the good work. The organization is excellent, so that even less experienced travellers would feel ok to come to China. I also felt really good in the host family, they were really great!
