What our students said about Limerick

Limerick was perfect for my educational leave. The city is very well laid out and there are no problems getting from point A to B on foot or by bike. Public transport is flexible except on Sundays. The city is beautiful to look at both day and night due to the adjacent river, the Shannon and various churches, castles and cathedrals. Limerick also offers a very advantageous geographical location if you are interested in travelling: the most important travel destinations in Ireland can be reached in a very short time, which is why you can travel to various destinations in one day even without a hotel.

5.0Fabian Germany

Limerick is a nice little city. However, there is not much to see. Sightseeing is quickly done. I went on two excursions by bus. Galway and Killaloe. A car would be a better way to go on great excursions.

Most recent student reviews of language schools in Limerick

I was lucky that there were only three of us, once four and otherwise only two. It was like private lessons. Our teacher was extremely competent. She explained things really well, was very humorous and very friendly.
Super nice people.

The organisation..the structure..the quality of the teaching was a bit so-so..as the teacher of the first morning part was not very empathetic and communicative and his way of teaching was very hasty.

I need accommodation for my daughter in Limerick. She has her university place already, I only need accommodation.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions about English courses in Limerick

I am a lecturer and would be interested in attending an English course in Limerick, would it be possible to pay through the lecturer card?
“The teacher's charter is a grant that can only be spent within Italy with institutions that have an agreement with the MIUR, so at the time of writing (2024) it cannot be used with foreign schools.”
