Comments about courses

Insurance - 8 months: EUR 180

Students requiring a student visa must:

  • Have adequate medical insurance to cover their stay in Ireland. The policy must be in English. The school can arrange medical insurance before a student arrives

  • Open a bank account in Ireland and have evidence of more than EUR 3000 balance. The school can help students to open an account on arrival (please bring proof of funds from your home bank with you to Ireland).

    While there is no policy that students must buy their course book through the school, they must have the correct course books with them when going to class. If not, they will not be allowed to enter the class which will affect their attendance negatively. There is a Student Noticeboard located in the school where students can buy and sell course books.


    The current prices do vary by date: those are only valid for bookings made before 31.10.2023. Once the new 2024 prices kick in, they do not vary by date.

Student opinions about Bridge Mills Galway Language Centre, Galway

Liked
I felt very comfortable in this language school. Small class sizes, different levels, very friendly and open-minded teachers. The teachers rotate so that I also had the pleasure of being taught by different teachers. Everyone has their own methods and approach. I not only learned English there, but also a lot about the country and its people and this has not been limited to Ireland. The classes are mixed differently: different backgrounds, different cultures, different mother tongues. Through the group work, you have the opportunity to learn about all these, to get into conversation and make friends at the same time. The school itself offers various leisure activities and additional hours. Bus tours can also be booked and paid for at the school.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss Book market "Charly Brown", bus tours, pub Quays with fantastic music and great atmosphere.

The small class size. I attended classes in February/March and the average class size was about five or six students, especially the classes in the afternoon were characterized by a very small amount of students taking part in the class.

Being a small school, the relationship between pupils and teachers and pupils and pupils turns out into a strong friendship.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss Galway is a beautiful town and, in my opinion, it makes sense to go for three months or more, as I did, because the Irish air needs to be slowly breathed. The locals are fantastic and you feel good. You should visit very well Ireland, which is wonderful and the best thing for guys, who want to spend a whole year, (which I recommend) is to book few month in the family and then find an accommodation in ans apartment on the spot, or for the luckiest, even a job because it's much nicer not to stay in a family.

There were no exact groups, we were put into different groups in the morning, in the afternoon, even for the second week. It had advantages, too, but there was no strong connection between the group members.

Quality of teaching / language progress: The course was great and a lot of fun. For me personally, the part in the morning was more relevant, as knowledge was refreshed again during this time (prepositions etc.). Therefore, if I were to do a course again, I would rather stay a week longer and only take the morning classes.
Other comments I felt very welcome - all the teachers are very nice and well organised.
