Learn English in Cork, Ireland
Kinsale School of English:
Kinsale School of English is an English language school in the town of Kinsale, 30 minutes drive from Cork City in southwest Ireland. We offer a range of English courses to students from around the world with all levels of English - from beginner to advanced. We offer group English courses, preparation for the Cambridge CAE & FCE exams, homestay programmes, English courses for juniors and more.
Why Choose Us?
- Because our teachers understand how students learn.
- Because we guarantee small classes (maximum 10).
- Because Kinsale town is safe and friendly.
- All our students get the opportunity to integrate with the local community. Outdoor sports and activities are with local Kinsale groups, as are indoor arts, crafts, yoga etc.
- Our school, accommodation and outdoor activities are all within a short walk (juniors are always accompanied).

Teaching Methods:
Many students tell us they lack the confidence to speak English. We base our teaching on the Communicative Approach to language learning and we focus on communicating in English - to develop that missing confidence.
How do we achieve this? Very simply, we make it fun to learn - Kinsale town becomes your extended classroom. All your sports and creative activities are through English and shared with Irish students. We will give you temporary membership of Kinsale library (another opportunity to integrate). Our teachers will take you on historical walks and to a weekly market where you will be encouraged to communicate.
Back in the classroom, we will help you develop and improve your grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. Small classes mean we dedicate more time to each student. Our classrooms are in quiet areas where you will not be distracted.
