beware, many places to visit close at 5pm. A must-see is the old library of Trinity College, St Patrick's Cathedral and the Botanical Gardens.

City/place
very pleasant city capital not too big, big green spaces, beautiful places to visit but as in Brittany, it rains at least once a day!
Quality of teaching / language progress
Quality courses with teachers who are attentive and caring, yet demanding. This allows you to progress with confidence.

Positive aspects of school
Very nice teachers. Good cafeteria with very fair prices. Overall nice staff and good atmosphere.
Negative aspects
The school's accommodation, the Atlas Residence.... Staff were very nice there ... but the cleaning of the rooms was only every fortnight (unfortunately it was also not possible to clean the room on one's own)... the food could be made healthier and more varied.
Other comments
The school could adjust better digitally - unfortunately the rooms are not equipped accordingly.
City/place
Vibrant, friendly people, lots to visit and great parks and pubs. I loved the free entry to some museums.

Insider tips about what future students should not miss
There is an Irish folk dance lesson on Wednesday evenings. The students' accommodation house in Terenure Park is great.
Other comments
There are a lot of long term students at Atlas school so it was a bit difficult to make progress in a short time. The program was more dedicated to these students. My 3 weeks started with the last week of a term. It as then followed by the first week of a term with new teachers and new class and only the last week was a "normal week". I would have preferred a more specialized program.

The school is very good in itself! Competence and organisation were great! However the quality of the teaching is to be reviewed because I came across professors not necessarily competent, I was disappointed even if they were trying hard. The explanations were often confused. I recognise the difficulty of learning a language but I stress the fact that my level has not necessarily evolved as I would have liked. I remain satisfied, because it is also up to me to make sure I improve.

Other comments
it is not a school where you can learn the English for beginners, it doesn't have an appropriate teaching method. Every Monday there are new pupils with inevitable confusion of the school environment.

You shouldn't miss the class trips and activities thinking that you can do things cheaper on your own, it's much more fun and you can meet new friends.
