This course is for students aged: 16-70

We’ve been organising exciting and innovative activity programmes for groups of teenagers for the past 35 years with great success. The main aim of the courses is to improve the students’ use and command of the English language through enjoyable activities – having fun in other words!

Our main centres are located in good residential suburbs of Cork City – Douglas & Bishopstown. All of our activities are fully supervised by professional trainers and all centres are recognised by the Department of Education. These courses offer a combination of language tuition in the mornings, with sporting and cultural activities in the afternoons and evenings. Our most popular junior course is the EL101 Summer Youth English Language & Activity Course.

The students are carefully graded on their arrival and levels range from beginners to advanced. The language courses consist of 20 lessons (15 hours) formal tuition in the mornings with a maximum of 12–15 students per class.

In the afternoons, there’s a programme of sports, excursions, debates and video sessions with sporting fixtures arranged against Irish teams. Evening activities include discos, karaoke, bingo and video evenings. These courses are for juniors aged between 12–17 years.

We offer a range of Winter Junior programmes from September to June. These programmes generally range in duration from 1 to 4 weeks and are for secondary school students. The programmes themselves are designed for each specific group and can range from 15 - 20 hours of tuition per week. We have a wide range of afternoon and evening activities to choose from, with host family accommodation.

Better options in Cork

I had a three weeks course there and I am sure there are better options in Cork. Firstly they follow almost all the time a book sometimes with silly games good for A2 students.

They offer in the website things that are not true like the number of students in the class and the money you have to spend in material (you can rent the book but they tell you once you have bought it).

They mix students in the same class with very different levels and they do not seem to care about it. And, of course they tell you that is utterly impossible money refund (good for business I imagine)

Dear Raul,

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your opinions and would have liked to have had more opportunity to talk with you in person about your lessons while you were studying with us. Your teachers did express concern to us that you did not seem to be fully participating in classroom activities. When a member of the Academic team went to speak to you to see if there was anything we could do to help, you were not in class. We subsequently responded to your phone call to change your class in your last week in order to to assist your learning. It is a pity you found some of the activities childish. We have reviewed all feedback from the classes that week and they were very positive. Teachers include a variety of activities in order to appeal to a range of different learning styles and of course, as we are all different, not every activity will be to everyone’s liking.

Having reviewed the classes, we can see that there were in fact a maximum of 11 students in your classes. Our maximum number of students is 12. Some bookings, such as for students in receipt of grants, include an arrangement for renting a book, however, this is exceptional and is not available for all students.

All students complete a placement test before starting lessons, and their teachers are in constant communication with each other about each individual learners’ level and progress in each aspect of their language knowledge and ability. But of course every student is different and has different strengths and weaknesses and this is evident in all language classes. As a school, we pride ourselves on the care taken to ensure students are in the right level. Teachers are fully qualified to assess levels according to the common European Framework of Reference, and undergo continuous training to stay fresh on this.

Best regards

CEC Team

A great experience

CEC is a very valuable school, it offers many services and possibilities of learning.
The teachers are competent and very well prepared, especially in the exam preparation courses.
I enjoyed my time meeting new friends from other nationalities and different ages, and I think that this is a unique opportunity to improve, not only my skills in English, but also my knowledge of the world.

My experience at CEC

The school was situated near the main street, (St. Patrick), and it was reacheable with the bus that take in the city centre and then by walk on the bridge.
The teachers were very nice, competent, and prepared. The lessons weren't boring, and they were interesting.

I heart CEC

I had the most amazing time at CEC, it was beyond my expectations. The teachers are wonderful, always willing to help you. Every Friday we have an individual feedback with them to find out how we are progressing during the course, and with that we can always improve where we need to. Another thing that made me very happy to study at CEC is that we meet people from all over the world. I have made friends from Taiwan, France, Spain, Japan, Italy, China, Germany, Chile and South Korea. The school staff are always prepared do help us with anything that we need and are tottally prepared to deal with any kind of culture. I'm going to miss school everyday.
