ATC language schools, Bray, Ireland

Qualified teachers, over 40 years of experience, and top accreditation all come together to make ATC Language Schools one of the best English language schools in Ireland and the UK. Since its founding in 1973, ATC has attracted students from around the world who desire to study General English or prepare for any of the English language exams (IELTS, FCE, CAE, TOEIC, TIE, and Cambridge). Younger students are also welcome as ATC has summer and low season courses for students ages 11-17, and both junior and adult courses include the option to learn how to enter English-speaking industries through the World of Work Program. The Bray campus of ATC is located seaside in Victorian buildings complete with a library, student lounge, cafeteria, and garden. While close enough to reach Dublin in 35 minutes by train, Bray is far enough away from the bustle of the city to give peace and quiet to its visitors. Along with relaxing on the shores of the Irish Sea, students can climb Bray Head Hill and enjoy the views, explore nearby waterfalls and parks, and sample Irish culture by strolling through one of the local estate's gardens. Possible day trips include visits to Dublin, Kilkenny, Limerick, and the Cliffs of Moher. Students can stay in a student residence hall or apartment building adjacent to the campus, or they can stay with a local host family. Given the small, communal atmosphere of Bray, many of the host families have been working with ATC for years and know how to help international students adapt to Irish culture and absorb the English language outside the classroom. ATC in Bray is the perfect campus for any student who desires the quintessential Irish experience while also enjoying a top-notch English education.
