How we create the points regarding what we like/dislike about a school

Location in Dublin: ISE has two locations in the city of Dublin. The River Liffey separates the city and the schools are on the south of the city. They are in the neighbourhood Portobello, and under 5 minutes by foot from each other. The school on Camden Street is on the main highstreet in the area, with lots of bars, restaurants and shops. ISE on Harcourt Street is two streets back from their other school and close to the Iveagh Gardens.

Getting around: There are lots of bus stops on Camden Street, which reach various locations in Dublin. To get to the city centre it is around 15 minutes by bus from this street. If students want to enjoy the Temple Bar area, known for its nightlife then it is 11 minutes by bus, on the same side of the river. There is a tram stop less than 5 minutes walk from ISE on Harcourt Street. It is on the same road, and is a station on the green line. Alternatively, Dublin is quite walkable with the temple bar being 20 minutes by foot and the city centre, over the bridge, being 30 minutes.

Course: The schools both teach general English in a range of intensities to cater for students' different learning capabilities. Furthermore, they provide subjects that you can add on to your general English course. These include exam preparation courses in IELTS and the Cambridge Business English Certificate, an unpaid internship as well as a work placement.

Chain school: ISE - The International School of English is a group of English language schools located in various cities across Ireland. International students from over 30 different countries have learned English at ISE. They are highly recognised by QQI / ACELS, and are a member of the ELE Ireland. Trinity College London has authorised them to be an examination centre in Dublin.
  • The language school ISE - The International School of English was founded in Waterford, Ireland in 1997.
