Great experience at ACET!

I went to Cork a month ago to attend an English course at ACET with the idea of improving my language skills and focusing on business terminology. Guess what? It was great! Teachers are all very well-prepared, the organisation is perfect and the personnel is simply great! I would INDEED recommend this school to students and workers willing to become advanced English speakers ;)

My English course in Cork

This school was recommended to me by an agency in France. It is my last week and i am so sad. i made wonderful friends from different countries. Acet is run by a couple and their daughter and the staff and the students seem to be part of a big family. I learnt so much because my teachers Olivia and Kevin have been so patient with me. My Irish mum - Bernie - is a good cook ( lots of potatoes) and talk to me in the evenings.
Thank you everybody for making my stay in Cork so great.

My experience,

I'm Gerard Lopez. I'm 22 I'm from Barcelona and this is my first experience studying abroad. This is my simple opinion.
My first impression of the city was like arriving at the scene of a film, homes, streets, neighbourhoods, and as not raining all day, but this Is much what makes this a magical town.
ACET School was easy to find because my family showed me their location but is actually located in the city centre.
Students at ACET will be friends for life.
