Additional information
Positive aspects of school
The school is centrally located. The equipment is essentially good, but when it comes down to it, the connection between the laptop and the projector doesn't work. The "presentation" of the welcome package looks professional. However, it is not particularly substantial for adults. Why do I need a plastic card with my name and the course? What does the programme actually contain. The 2nd afternoon activity (tour of the Jameson Distillery) was interesting and well organised.
Negative aspects
This is the 5th "Teachers refresher course" I have participated in. Among others at CES in Cork, Dublin and the UK. This was by far the biggest disappointment I have experienced up until now.
The teacher was not prepared for this course, but had expected CLIL participants.
Half of the students were primary teachers and half were secondary teachers, which made it even more difficult for the teacher to accommodate everyone.
There was no information about the content of the course. On request, a compilation of the content we had covered during the week was handed out later on Friday.
The lessons were dominated by small talk and little practical content. On request, a few (6) copies were handed out, but these in no way justify the fee of € 50 for course materials. Overall, the course did not meet the needs and expectations of the participants in any way. The course fee of € 575,- for a 4-day course is out of all proportion to what I experienced there.
The first afternoon activity was a guided tour of the city. This was conducted in such a way that we participants of the "Teachers Refresher Course" thought it was a farce. For the fact that this is included in the price, one should actually get a proportionate refund of this money. The administration's explanation that it had taken place exactly as planned was very surprising for us. When the school insists that this is the standard, it is difficult to recommend this school.

The accommodation in the student dormitory was well-equipped, although quite shabby when we moved in (overflowing rubbish bins, sticky cupboards, tables and floors).
The actual location of the "shared apartment" was unacceptable - the other flatmates felt the same way. The noise from the street was immense, so that one could hardly have a conversation in the kitchen with the window open. At 3:00 a.m., the truck delivery for the supermarket on the block arrived. The clattering unloading took about 1 hour. At 5:30 a.m. the supermarket staff began to move the goods around or bring them into the shop on roller containers. Everything directly under the windows of the flat. Given the range of "student's accommodation" in Cork, this block should definitely be avoided.
As stated at the outset, this was a truly disappointing experience. The price of € 765 for a four-day course with accommodation in a student's block stands in no relation to this for me.
You can do better!

Quality of teaching / language progress
Over my 4 weeks I could have progressed in a group more quickly but I did not have any request from the teacher (you had to ask) and I did not know it. I could have progressed faster in a higher level from week 2. It is my only frustration not to have been longer in a group of level B1.

The house is a beautiful Georgian house. In one of the classrooms on the first floor were reflections from the celling luminaire on the glass board. It made it difficult to read on the board. One of the teachers had very tiny handwriting so I found it hard to read.

I think the break is really too short. Every day we were struggling to go to the bar and maybe go to the bathroom, since for both of them there was the queue. So that every morning half of coffee was automatically thrown away. I would add 5 minutes.

The apartment was too far away from the city center and the school. And it was not cleaned when I arrived. (University Hall Apartment)

Insider tips about what future students should not miss
Bear in mind that, in summer, there are a lot of Spanish students and you are in the same class. therefore, you tend to speak Spanish. I tried to chat with non-Spanish speakers to avoid this problem, but it is difficult to avoid. One week, out of 10 students, 6 of them wee Spanish. It is difficult to work in groups and whenever you get stuck you speak Spanish.
