The first class in the morning is usually given to grammar. The second class is normally devoted to improve students' oral and reading skills. Debates and discussions about interesting topics are encouraged by m.l.a. and occur frequently.
Host family accommodation (Kilkenny location):
Students stay with an Irish host family in Kilkenny, who in turn, has been carefully selected and that are constantly reviewed. By staying in a host family each student has the great opportunity of getting to know the “Irish way of life” during the stay in Ireland. It's our policy to only have one student of the same nationality per host family. All students are guaranteed a single room throughout their stay with us. Most of our host famlies have been with us for several years and are all looking forward to hosting students from other countries.
