    Hi everyone
    I am looking for people who have done this course and can tell me their experience with it.
    I am thinking of doing it this year, as more of a hobby as it interests me and I like the language but if any of you can tell me you have found related work because of this course that would be great to hear.
    I would also like to hear your actual experiences on the course.
    If its not really valuable employment wise would I be better of going to a local spanish class or teaching myself online and saving a lot of money?
    Thanks in advance for your experiences

    I am interested in language learning. I spoke to NUIG Language Lecturers during one of their open days about these courses.
    Relative to the other big 3 languages, I would say you would make more progress in Spanish more quickly. However, it is extremely expensive!
    I reckon after 2 years with application, you would probably be about B1 fluent, whereas with the Istituto de Cervantes, studying online, you would probably be B2, but it requires a lot of discipline!
    I haven't signed up.
    And TBH of the 3rd level institutions I have studied with, 3 in all, NUIG was by far, the poorest!
