Advice re: learning English in Galway

Neil3030 · 2015-04-16 15:01:45

Hi all. An Italian friend wants to come to Ireland to learn English. I would probably class her as somewhere between beginner and intermediate in terms of spoken English. She was asking for recommended cities other than Dublin, and I thought Galway would be a great spot to live for a few months. Are there any good English…

Hi all.

An Italian friend wants to come to Ireland to learn English. I would probably class her as somewhere between beginner and intermediate in terms of spoken English.

She was asking for recommended cities other than Dublin, and I thought Galway would be a great spot to live for a few months.

Are there any good English schools in the City that anyone would recommend? Possibly where accommodation is also provided in the price?

Also, how is the service industry doing at the moment, would she have much trouble getting a part time job as a waitress or something like that?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

In the summer we get tons of Spanish kids here learning English so there are schools. I think they learn with Atlantic Language.
