We specialise in intensive English language courses (one-to-one or small groups) for International students who want to improve their English. Our courses include homestay with a local host family and a qualified instructor teaching you onsite. Learning a language through full cultural immersion is proven to be the most successful method to master that language. The Cork Language Institute provides quality individual English language courses designed with the student in mind. We have attractive language travel packages at a very competitive price and, being bi-lingual ourselves, we know what it takes to master a language!

What people say
Un grand merci pour ces cours intensifs d’anglais. Vous avez su identifier mes difficultés et m’aider à reconstruire des bases. Durant ces deux semaines, j’ai pu améliorer mes connaissances en matière de compression orale et écrite, particulièrement en ce qui concerne l’anglais des affaires. J’ai enrichi mes connaissances grammaticales et lexicales. Enfin, j’ai beaucoup apprécié de vivre auprès de votre famille et vos deux petites filles qui m’ont beaucoup aidé en parallèle de vos cours. A présent, je retrouve le plaisir d’étudier l’anglais et j’espère que nous nous reverrons prochainement.
Sophia came back so happy from Carol and James' house. She had such a great experience : very, very nice and friendly family with wonderful children, she said Carol is a fantastic mother, she welcomed her so warmly and really took excellent care of her, organizing activitiies, speaking to her... Also, it was very interesting to be with the Italian girl, they got along very well and they only spoke English together!
So thank you Iris for making this possible !

Hola Iris y familia,
Claudia es muy timida y con sus 10 años tenía mucho miedo de estar sóla en una familía extraña y donde no dominaba muy bien el idioma pero gracias a vosotros que la habeis acogido con tanto cariño y tanta hospitalidad ella ha vuelto pidiendome cada día que quiere volver el año que viene, y sin duda la hará. En los días que pasó con vosotros no paró de realizar actividades divertidas y las niñas de la casa, encantadoras, siempre estaban dispuestas a ayudarla y a prestarle cualquier cosa que necesitara, algo no muy habitual en niños! La practica del idioma inglés la realizó en un clima de lo más fácil para ella pues lo hacía sin darse ni cuenta.
