City/place
Limerick was perfect for my educational leave. The city is very well laid out and there are no problems getting from point A to B on foot or by bike. Public transport is flexible except on Sundays. The city is beautiful to look at both day and night due to the adjacent river, the Shannon and various churches, castles and cathedrals.
Limerick also offers a very advantageous geographical location if you are interested in travelling: the most important travel destinations in Ireland can be reached in a very short time, which is why you can travel to various destinations in one day even without a hotel.
Quality of teaching / language progress
The course format is designed so that new students can join the courses every Monday. The open course format allows for a dynamic experience, as new groups of students can always emerge in the course. There is no linear course format. Instead, all the skills needed for the CAE or AILTS are taught to the students. Individual wishes of the students are also catered for, if they lend themselves to the lessons.
Accommodation
Host family fulfilled all services offered to my full satisfaction. In addition, I was able to prepare additional meals at any time without extra charge.

Don't miss Limerick city routes and county Limerick trails, it's great!! Of course, if you are interested in walking and running.

I was punctual at 8:30 for the level test and I did it almost an hour later, so I lost the first class. There was poor course planning. It was exam week at school so I missed two days of course. The management should have an alternative for new students.

Force yourself to do the activities that can allow you to meet more people. Everyone is open to discussion and that can help you improve your English.
Other comments
The school is quite small in terms of room but it includes 3 buildings. In case of problem of language level or housing the administration remains at your disposal. The human encounters are just great (especially for young 18-20) I went there in summer so I do not know the atmosphere during other periods. Ps: When I arrived I was the only French so I have a lot (not had the choice) to work my English well.

Insider tips about what future students should not miss
The distance from school to home, when it is a family, is generally longer than 30-35 minutes walking. Public transport is bad and nonexistent in some routes.
Other comments
In my opinion, they should improve some academic aspects. They could offer through a website, for example, exercises and activities that allow students to practice and progress according to their level. Much grammar is taught, which is fine, but it is not enough. It is important to improve listening comprehension and writing skills. A web page with guided exercises, with an access code, if the centre wants it, would help to improve these aspects.

The courses in the afternoon (in small groups) were unimaginable bad! Always other teachers and no plan at all! We played cards, shared videos, taken walks, but I haven't paid my money for this pointless waste of time. The afternoon classes were totally lost money and time!!!

The house was not bad in terms of treatment, but we were placed in an unheated attic (and it was very cold) and the mattresses were full of bulges (But very exaggerated!).

The school has a familiar atmosphere, from the first day you are welcomed stupendously and that gives you confidence to dare to speak.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss
In my case, my teachers were great, the theory is somehow hard and you must work fast. What I saw is that a good result is achieved in 6 months, studying hard and practicing quite a lot. In my class more than half of us spoke Spanish, but you have to care that people only communicate in English with you. Staying at a host family was a great idea because you learn a lot and a great practice.
Other comments
The school is very good regarding to language orientation, price and quality. Teachers which corresponded me were excellent, but one more than the other, I need to clarify. If you feel that there is no connection between the method-teacher and you, inform the coordinator Alan for him to collaborate with you on time.

A lot of students from Arab countries, who at every opportunity try to speak their own language, even during the lesson. Teachers practically do not react at this. And it's not very good for learning English.

It's not really a teacher-student connection, it's more a type of friendship between the staff and students.

If you really want to get in touch with the Irish Culture, go to a host family and ask them about everything.
Then you won't stay there as a guest. You'll be a part of their family and go to Pubs etc. where you get in touch with more Irish people and practice your skills.
Try to organise a group of students, rent a car and travel around!
Ireland was worth every € and Limerick, as ugly as it is, is right in the middle of places like Cork, Galway (Aran Islands, Cliffs), Killarney, Dingle, Ring of Kerry etc. etc.
Don't be shy, enjoy your time and take your time to fall in love with Guinness:)
