Welcome to Waterford English Language Centres.
Established
in 1967, our school is a family-run, student-focused language centre
located in the heart of Waterford city. We offer a wide selection of
general and academic courses for both adults and juniors which are
available all year round. Only a five-minute walk from the city centre,
and based in a bright three-storey Georgian building with a beautiful
walled garden and conservatory, we constantly strive to provide
learning with a personal touch, to encourage students to partake fully
in the countless cultural, sporting and social opportunities available
throughout Ireland and to maximise the potential of each student who
comes through our door.
We are the only Irish-Government-recognised language school in Waterford which is open all
year round. Our fully-qualified teaching staff focus classes on the
skills which students most need to develop (reading, listening,
writing, speaking), using a wide variety of academic (Books/Cds/DVDs) and authentic materials (Newspapers/Documentaries/Movies).
Classes include communicative practice exercises such as role-plays,
dialogues, debates, discussion groups, and presentations. Our
one-to-one classes are tailored to an individual student’s needs and
our exam courses cover specific syllabi.
Our
International Youth Summer Centre for junior students is located in the
enclosed parklands of the Ursuline Secondary School which provide a
safe and tranquil setting for morning sessions in bright spacious
classrooms. In the afternoons, a fully-supervised programme of indoor
and outdoor sports, games, cultural activities and social outings is
provided for summer school students.
With
41 years experience in providing an unsurpassed learner experience, we
believe that learning a language cannot be simply confined to the
classroom and we pride ourselves in integrating our students as much as
is possible into the cultural and social life of Waterford. MAKE YOUR BUDGET HERE: http://readyforyou.org/home/budget.html |
