Ireland is famous for its hospitality and the Irish people are naturally warm and friendly. The country has a rich cultural heritage in music, art, poetry and dance, and the cities are buzzing with things to see and do. In recent years, the country has become a global hub for technology and business, and the economy is thriving. Ireland is an attractive place to live and work and the advantages for international students are strong. At ELI we seek to create an international community of learners from different countries, lifestyles, cultures, and traditions, all united by a common goal to transform their lives through English.
Nationalities call Ireland home.

Arriving in Ireland truly changed my life. Connecting with the beautiful landscapes, discovering the Irish culture (and others), and above all, finding people who share the same dreams, goals, and fears as me… all these made me feel I was in my second home. Thanks Ireland!

“I made a small group of close friends, many of whom I will keep for life. That’s the beauty of meeting people from lots of different countries: each one has their own culture, and in the end you learn from that too. Apart from learning English, you come here and learn a lot about other countries, not just Ireland. It enriches you as a person.”
-Lucas, Spain
As a student at Eli School, my experience has been satisfactory, improving aspects such as confidence and freedom when meeting people from different parts of the world. The school community is a highlight, offering a large number of extracurricular activities to strengthen relationships and provide the opportunity to practice the language. I would also like to highlight Alessandra, who was my first teacher with more than 10 years of experience, for her seriousness and the high standards she imparted in her classes, which has been fundamental in this path.

Great school with a mix of nationality that makes it easier to learn English. Attentive teachers and willing to help. The reception staff are super attentive and help a lot to solve our problems. The structure of the school is good with great quality equipment.

I had an incredible time studying at ELI Drogheda. The teachers are not only professional and supportive, but also genuinely passionate about helping students improve their English. The classes are well-structured, interactive, and adapted to different levels, which helped me build confidence in speaking and understanding English.

I have been their student since October- 2022 and I had one of th greatest experience in Dublin. The teachers are very helpful. I started as an upper-intermediate student and finished in the Profi- ciency class. The mix of nationalities is width completely different from other schools. I totally recommend.

I’ve been studying there for 6 months. I just finished my course and I can say that it’s a lovely school, with a very kind staff, clean facilities and amazing teachers.
Diana Urquilla
It was a very nice experience, you meet many people of many nationalities and if you work hard, you can learn some other language. Studying here helped me a lot to improve my English and my personality, I visited many places and countries. It has definitely been the best experience I have had in my life.
