Venue: ELI Schools in Drogheda is situated right on the waterfront of the River Boyne, in a converted warehouse building, just a five-minute walk from the town centre. Located on Ireland’s east coast, Drogheda is half way between Dublin and the border with Northern Ireland, on the road to Belfast. Students can easily reach the school on public buses which leave directly from Dublin Airport (DUB). Drogheda’s more than 800 years of history ensure that there is much to see and do, both in town and in the surrounding area. The small-town feel of Drogheda provides students at ELI (English Language Institute) with a chance to experience authentic Irish culture.

Options: ELI Drogheda offers different study options to accommodate a variety of students. General English 15 is their core programme and from there, students can add other classes according to their needs, such as: IELTS Exam Preparation; Speaking Fluency; or Professional English. ELI also organises a Work and Study programme and runs a free, weekly Job Club.

Advantages: ELI Drogheda is a big school with 18 well-equipped classrooms and in their free time, students can use the large games room, which includes both a billiards table and a foosball table. There is plenty to do in the area around the school and the cost of living is significantly lower than in the country’s capital.
