definetely

Loved the school, loved my teachers (shoutout to Benny my Irish Dad) the classes were always fun and meeting so many people from all these different countries was really cool. I was there 3 years ago and im still in contact with my host family and all of the friends i made there.
Galway holds a very special place in my heart, and i will definitely recommend it.

In the school

In the school, teachers were very différents; so I could approach various aspects of the language and the land culture. The form of learning was more specially founded on discussion: it wwas so easier to obtain vocabs and to speak in the street, at home, in the pub,... Everybody was ready to answer to our problems and the school's life was extremly fun. A specially mention for "faces to faces": it's a marvellous moment to speak free of the différents subjects we can't approach at school. This experience was for me a real great moment for the English Learning and my personal culture ! The musical irish tradition must absolutly survive !!!

I had a great experience!

I had been in GCI for two months.
Surrounded by friendly teachers, helpful staff, and friends with lots of origins, I could have fun.
I would like to recommend GCI for anyone who wants to improve English skills.
I would have to say "don't be so nervous" for someone who is shy.
GCI holds a lot kinds of events that you can meet more people and have more conversations.
I really want to go back again.
Thanks a million!
