"It has been a great experience and Iwould defintely do it again!!!"

Karim El Khouly, student from Germany

I really enjoyed the time in Wexford. The school is amazing. I've learned a lot, got in touch with many nice people (including the teachers) and had so much fun! I'll never forget the time I spent there and perhaps I will come back next year again. It goes without saying that I can´t say that my English has greatly improved after four weeks. learnig a language takes time and dedication. However, the Slaney Language Centre is a great school with amazing teachers! I definitely recommend it!!! In general, everybody is so nice there. My host family was so lovely. They always try to their best. After a couple of days I was like a part of the family. We had a nice time and great fun together. We will definitely stay in touch.

"A nice experience to find access to a language."

Harald Pestak, student from Switzerland

The teachers were very flexible, because Harald was in an intermediate level (he was not the only one, even other children had difficulties) the beginner group was too easy, the advanced group was too difficult on the second day spontaneously formed a separate group. This group was also suitable until the end of the course. The rooms were very good, the teachers were all very nice. Very well liked the location of the school, very quiet location and the extensive leisure offer. A minus- a chocolate or muesli and a small drink could have given it in the breaks for free, would have been a nice gesture, customer service.

"It was fantastic"

erica lorioni, student from Italy

The school is nice. Jim, the bus driver, is very funny! All the people in the school are friendly, and they talk with the students in a very nice way. They are like friends to the students, and this is a good thing to help the people in their study-holiday. Some teachers are not so good and some are better than others. I'm so lucky because I had fantastic teachers for three weeks. One of the best things is that the school uses some different method of teaching like using YouTube, TV, or PC, and this helps me so much! The activities are good but too expensive.

County Wexford is famous for many things. Not only does it have the best weather in Ireland it also has some of the most beautiful beaches in Ireland and the world.
While Wexford is a small and friendly town with about 30,000 inhabitants it is a lively place with a variety of shops, bars and pubs for all tastes, cafes, restaurant, opera house, library, Arts Centre, racecourse, GAA stadium, galleries, swimming pool, bowling alley, fitness studios and more. You can enjoy a leisurely stroll along the quays among the beautiful fishing boats.

Wexford people are believed to be the friendliest in Ireland. You will soon discover the truth in this while practicing your English talking to locals. Wexford people enjoy making new friends and are curious to find out about new people and live in your country. The more the talk, the better your English, so don't be shy.
