Student comments about "Intensive English" at Bridge Mills Galway Language Centre
Vincenzo
"The afternoon hours quite useless .Students are invited to chatter all the time without the teacher intervening to correct etc."
Lucyna
"I rate this course very highly."
Ewa
"A very good course if you want to learn a lot in a short time. The classes are taught in such a way that they force each student to speak English. "
Henriette
"The course was great and a lot of fun. For me personally, the part in the morning was more relevant, as knowledge was refreshed again during this time (prepositions etc.). Therefore, if I were to do a course again, I would rather stay a week longer and only take the morning classes."
Anja
"Small classes; no frontal teaching, but active teaching, in which the student is encouraged and challenged through diverse group work; constructive feedback."
Special note for 2025 holiday season: If you plan to take a course during the high season months of April, June, July or August 2025 we urgently advise you to book as early as possible. In 2024 many schools were fully booked during the holidays and the situation is unlikely to be different for 2025 due to a current shortage of teachers, which affects most schools.

“I felt very comfortable in this language school. Small class sizes, different levels, very friendly and open-minded teachers. The teachers rotate so that I also had the pleasure of being taught by different teachers. Everyone has their own methods and approach. I not only learned English there, but also a lot about the country and its people and this has not been limited to Ireland. The classes are mixed differently: different backgrounds, different cultures, different mother tongues. Through the group work, you have the opportunity to learn about all these, to get into conversation and make friends at the same time.
The school itself offers various leisure activities and additional hours. Bus tours can also be booked and paid for at the school.”
Insider tip: “Book market "Charly Brown", bus tours, pub Quays with fantastic music and great atmosphere.”
Review details
Quality of teaching / language progress: Small classes; no frontal teaching, but active teaching, in which the student is encouraged and challenged through diverse group work; constructive feedback.

“Our two teachers were enthusiastic. They deserve great praise for their perseverance and the ability to understand "our" wide variety of accents ;-) Versatile lessons with various tools.... funny, informative, certainly "challenging", never boring.
The "free lessons" were also very informative, some really excellent and sometimes more "useful" for knowledge building than the actual lessons.”
Review details
Other comments Sometimes the knowledge level of the participants in a group differs strongly. At the admission interview, it should be spoken more about the individual's desires, aspired goals etc. The written categorization test isn't really meaningful.

“The downtown location and the school is always open. The teachers are helpful and welcoming. The secretary's office is very helpful”
“Very few inclusive and socializing activities. Only one in two weeks.
Very high prices for individual tuition. I was disappointed by the school that I was not notified that the day was closed for a holiday that fell on my first day of school. I found out by accident and luckily I asked, otherwise I would have gone to the school and found no one. And then they also could have given me back the money for the day that I paid for and didn't do.”

“Being a small school, the relationship between pupils and teachers and pupils and pupils turns out into a strong friendship.”
Insider tip: “Galway is a beautiful town and, in my opinion, it makes sense to go for three months or more, as I did, because the Irish air needs to be slowly breathed. The locals are fantastic and you feel good. You should visit very well Ireland, which is wonderful and the best thing for guys, who want to spend a whole year, (which I recommend) is to book few month in the family and then find an accommodation in ans apartment on the spot, or for the luckiest, even a job because it's much nicer not to stay in a family.”

Other comments The school provides a good service, it's raising up again after a "sad" fall occurred a little ago and it's doing that really well. The Irish are very nice and the school staff super helpful

“Very good teachers using varied teaching methods. Very helpful and courteous staff in the school administration.”
“The afternoon lessons were in groups with varying levels of English, which was sometimes difficult when doing exercises in pairs and groups. But this was not a big problem. I understand that this was due to organisational reasons. ”
Insider tip: “It is a good idea to find accommodation close to the school and the old part of the city. ”

Quality of teaching / language progress: A very good course if you want to learn a lot in a short time. The classes are taught in such a way that they force each student to speak English.

Quality of teaching / language progress: The course was great and a lot of fun. For me personally, the part in the morning was more relevant, as knowledge was refreshed again during this time (prepositions etc.). Therefore, if I were to do a course again, I would rather stay a week longer and only take the morning classes.
Other comments I felt very welcome - all the teachers are very nice and well organised.

Student comments about Homestay
Laura
"Very clean house, hosting very helpful in talking and lunch times. Nice area is convenient to walk to in 25 minutes"
Vincenzo
"No laundry, no electricity adaptor, scarse dinners with no variety, food at maximum economy, water heater at minimum to save money, zero sense of welcome. "
Ildiko
"Dirty bathroom, no flexibility. We were treated like children, not as guests who paid for food, too. Being at home at 6 o’clock when you are an adult and school finishes at 4.30, also it is a long distance! Ridiculous. But if you were not at home by 6, you didn’t get dinner. She played for it, I guess. "
Olaf
"Since buses only run every 30 minutes, if at all, and often get stuck in traffic jams, it is extremely important that the school in Galway is within walking distance, so that you do not have to constantly rely on taxis in the evenings or at night. In my opinion, a 30-minute walk is the absolute limit!"

Student comments about Homestay with Private Bathroom
Tímea
"I think we were really lucky to be hosted by this family. They were very helpful, caring and made us feel at home in their house. "
Dorottya
"We were in a small apartment house with our own bathroom and kitchen. The house was comfortable, beautiful and clean. The housekeeper was very kind and attentive, she cooked delicious meals every day, she even baked an apple pie on the last night. She was as caring as a mother. I can only recommend"

FAQ about Bridge Mills Galway Language Centre, Galway
- The homestay with a single room and private bathroom description tells me that the distance to the school is 20 minutes by public transport. I wanted to know if this applies to all accommodation with this option or if it refers to the fact that the furthest accommodation you can get is a maximum of 20 minutes by public transport from the school.“Most of the accommodations are about 20-25 minutes away (some on foot others by public transport) from the school.
