I’ve had a very good experience at Apollo Language Centre because of 2 important points; one is the teachers and the other is the mix of nationalities. It’s a way to avoid speaking our own language.

Miguel, Mexico.
When I started in this school, I understood it was the best choice because every teacher and Apollo staff member is very kind, hospitable and helpful. We’re like a family here.

Cagdas, Turkey.
I had a good experience with Apollo, the mix of nationalities was good. I just spoke English and I improved very much. They have Apollo social programmes which you have activities during the week and in those activities they try to show us Irish culture through museums, pubs and restaurants. We also have activities to share our own cultures with our classmates. The crew was amazing and always gave me help and essentials when I needed them.

Paula, Brazil.
A great school in one of the best places in Dublin. I was amazed by the environment of the school and quality of the teachers. It is definitely a place I would recommend for everybody.

Jessica, Colombia.
It is the best language centre in Ireland. I like especially the team of teachers. It has the best social activities, best students and I wish the best for all the guys there. I will be back again soon. I love you all!
