I do not recommend this school if you really want to improve your English.
The biggest problem is that the teachers change all the time. Almost every week we had a different teacher. Because of this, the teachers did not know our level, what we had learned before, or what we needed to improve. Every teacher had a different teaching style, so it was very difficult to make progress.
Another problem is that new students join and leave every week. Many lessons started with the same basic topics again for the new students. We could not follow the course book in a proper way because the lessons were not well organized.
Sometimes it felt like the school cared more about getting new students than helping the current students improve. I paid a lot of money for this course, but I don't think it helped me improve my English as much as I expected.
I am very disappointed with my experience, and I would not choose this school again.
I have just one day left of my CELTA at the Centre of English Studies, and it has completely changed my teaching style from "lecturing" to "facilitating". My tutors were fantastic; they really helped me master my teaching, while consistently pushing me to reduce my "Teacher Talking Time" and trust the learners more. Be prepared to work hard, but the growth is incredible. Highly recommend!
Excellent school, I had my best experiences in Ireland there. Good teachers and people who really care for you. I would like to especially thank teachers Fiona, Nathaniel and Veerle who were part of my journey.
I spent two weeks at CES School in Dublin and had excellent lessons with my teachers Hillary and Sylvia. Grammar, vocabulary, and speaking were the main focus – exactly what I was looking for. Both teachers delivered a perfectly coordinated program that was enjoyable and really helped me improve.
Classes were in small groups, right in the heart of Dublin ☘️💚. I also appreciated the school’s varied social program, which gave me the chance to get to know the other participants better. The international mix of students made the experience even more enriching.
The best English school ever! They have a lot of extra class programs. When we are in quarantine, they continuous teaching us with daily online class. At CES I meet great teacher with real interest to change someone life. I am really happy to be part of this school.
