A great experience at Dorset College

Liffey River Hello everyone, I am Mauro, for LanguageBookings I work to help students from all over the world who for many reasons have decided to learn a new foreign language and want to study abroad. I love giving advice on my students about different schools and different destinations to learn a new language. That is the way I am attending courses in different schools, just to live a real experience of study abroad. Now I am in Dublin area and on this article I want to tell you about my pleasant experience lived at Dorset College Dublin.

Dorset College is a school located in the center of the Irish capital, easily accessible on foot or through many city buses. At this school I attended two weeks general English course plus conversation. This course is well structured and the school immediately seemed to me very seriously and with a great internal organization. That course is divided between morning and afternoon. In the morning, you can study the fourth keys activities to learn a language, such as grammar, vocabulary, listening and speaking. While during afternoon you can work on a lot of conversation between students. That is encouraged through games and discussions on different themes. Teacher is very careful to check the conversation and correct possible mistakes. During morning classes was a pleasure to meet two Dorset College teachers from different countries to teach students about different English accents. So I had a teacher from Dublin and one from United States, while in the afternoon an Irish teacher from Limerick for conversation part.

From the first impression I got to appreciate the seriousness and organization of the school. The first day of class I was with two students from Argentina and a Colombian girl. The Director of the Studies presented the school giving us a lot of useful information, it also gave us a welcome pack with specific book course, a school key chain and student's booklet with useful numbers and the activities program. Dorset College organizes activities for students every day and excursions outside Dublin at weekends.

During my time at this school I met students from all over the world. It's always nice to hear stories from different countries and new cultures to discover. I was very well received in my class and I spent two wonderful weeks there. One day in particular was very pleasant, the American Thanksgiving Day. Since our teacher is from US on the 28th of November brought us turkey and many products that they use to eat for that celebration day. It was indeed a celebration day and everybody at classroom enjoyed that moment.

Of course I can recommend Dorset College Dublin to all those who looking for an excellent academy in the heart of Dublin. A school of excellence and careful to the satisfaction of their students. I would like to thank all the school staff and every student and friend who I had the pleasure to meet there.
