The library is not too confortable, its light, the shelves, ... There are not many social activities with the school, or complementary activities in the school: movies, one extra conversation lesson free (one per week), There is not a place where students can spend their free time or exchange experiences (student room or café)

Deben tener en cuenta que en verano el numero de alumnos españoles matriculados en esta escuela es alto y te toca comparti clases con ellos con lo que inevitablemente hablas en español, yo intente relacionarme con gente de otros paises para evitar este problema pero era dificilñ de evitar pues una semana en una clase de 10 eramos 6 españoles, con lo que es muy dificil trabajar en grupo y cuando no puedes explicar algo en ingles tiendes a decirlo en español.

Try to not speak in your mother tongue always. It's easier but you don't improve you english so fast. Enjoy your time at Cork, it's a nice place to live for some period.
