English Lessons in Limerick?

rainbowdrop

A friend has asked me if I know of English language classes held over the summer months in Limerick?

She is a foreign student, and has a basic grasp of the English language, but would like to become more fluent before she returns to her home country in September.

Any boardsies out there have any suggestions? It'd be much appreciated.

both of these schools will have summer courses


The first one is in Limerick city centre - it has a decent reputation apart from the classes sometimes being a bit large (number of students)

all depends what she wants to learn. I taught English before, and lots of poeple want to improve grammar, lots more just want to be able to improve conversation.
Depending on what her mother tongue is she could do an exchange with someone, they could speak in English for a bit, then switch to what her langauge is (say if someone here was learning Spanish, or French, etc).
As in, she may not have to pay for a course, she could get one on one informal lessons over a coffee with some basic material to go through, to get the conversation going.
Again, it depends on what she is looking for....
