Terms or Whole Academic Year In Ireland

Why Study in Ireland

Spending an academic year in Ireland is an opportunity to have an unforgettable experience, both academically and personally. The challenge of adapting to a new country and its customs, living independently, away from family, and meeting new friends of another nationality is also an important motivation. To make the best decision, it’s a good idea to inform yourself about some important aspects.

In Ireland, students can study for a term or the entire course, while in England, following Brexit, students can only study for a term.

Why trust Anglo Connection with your child?

Unlike the vast majority of companies dedicated to organising English learning stays, Anglo Connection is located in the exact same area where the students will study and live during their stay in Ireland.

The team lives and works within a radius of less than 25 kilometres from the schools and homes where the students attend classes and live. This means personalised attention to students that is unattainable for large multinational companies. We have more than 20 years of experience and are proud of a track record in which hundreds of students have successfully learned English and had an unforgettable experience of personal growth.

The Key to Our Success

Our organisation is small and familiar and is very clear about its objective: to create the best conditions for the student to develop in a welcoming and happy environment and to be able to dedicate without worries to take advantage of a stay that will bring him the definitive learning of English and an unforgettable experience of self-improvement and autonomous living far from your home.

The Irish families in which they lodge, the schools and our dedication and full dedication are the guarantees for this objective to be fulfilled.

  • Schools: The selected schools have a high academic standard and excellent sports facilities. All the schools we work with, both in the Dublin area and in the south of Ireland, have a long tradition of welcoming international students. They are fully aware of their needs and facilitate their rapid adaptation to academic and social life.
  • Our Families: Living with a family allows for understanding Irish customs and facilitates total immersion in the language. Host families are experienced and are carefully evaluated by the organization. Students are treated like part of the family, and many of them will return to Spain having made lifelong friends. Our families are the most important part of this experience, which sets our organisation apart from other large agencies.
  • Supervision and support from Anglo Connection: Students are regularly visited by their families. We hold meetings with their teachers and closely monitor their adaptation, taking charge of solving any questions, needs, or problems that may arise, both within the family and at school. Likewise, we constantly maintain open channels of communication with families in Spain and inform them about their children’s progress.

Dublin

Our families and schools are located in residential areas outside the city’s commercial and tourist centre, but are well connected and have all the advantages of such areas, such as sports centres, shopping malls, shops, restaurants, etc.

Southern Ireland

The southern part of Ireland offers students a different experience than Dublin. Traditionally, this area has been considered more “authentic,” where you can truly experience
Irish hospitality and a truly Irish way of life.

Where in Ireland?

You can choose to study either in Ireland’s capital city Dublin, or in the southern part of Ireland for a different experience.

The Personal Touch

Anglo Connection handles all organizational logistics for the students’ trips. They will always be accompanied by a member of the team, usually the organisation’s director, Marisa Bareño Gregor. She and/or another member of the team will be with the students for at least the first two weeks of their stay in Ireland to personally ensure their rapid integration into families and schools, always with the support of the Irish team, who will be with them permanently.
