Great school! I had a great time in class with amazing teachers. Here I could develop speaking skills in a very fun way and I also polished the grammar I have learned before, for life and for IELTS. I dare say I’ve met the best teachers here in the 6 years that I’ve been learning English. Last but not least, the admin staff: very friendly and helpful people! I can’t thank them enough for all the support they gave me during my course.

It’s an amazing school in the city centre of Dublin. The teachers are very friendly. I improved my level of English but I also learnt their culture and some values. There are activities organised every day except Sundays. These are very nice, inexpensive and changes every week. I had the chance to surf in Ireland too. I met people from all over the world. I really recommend this school.

An unforgettable experience! I was very well received at this school. The exam preparation classes were excellent and the host family I was in was lovely. I had great meetings and I had the opportunity to speak only English. To all the French who want to go to Apollo, know that you will progress very quickly since there was only 2 French when I was there. Moreover organised outings are very varied and pleasant.
