Home English Language Programme

Course Description

This Programme is the ideal choice for students of English who want the 'full immersion' experience by living and learning with their teacher in his or her own home.

Our teachers' homes are very comfortable and usually located in a place of scenic beauty in magical West Cork. You can have 'One to One' tuition or come with a friend, family member or colleague for our 'Two to One' experience. Micro-Groups of maximum 4 can also be catered for by special arrangement

Each day — Mon­day to Fri­day — you will enjoy 4 hours of tuition with your teacher

You will have a minimum of one evening of entertainment. and on two afternoons you will participate in leisure activities of interest to you. These can be cultural trips, creative activities (Irish music, dance, jewellery making, stone engraving, pottery, aromatherapy lessons), land sports (horse-riding, golf, tennis, hiking, cycling, walking), watersports (kayaking, sailing, scuba diving,) and you will also have a full day excursion at the weekends.

Atlantic SEAL's team of 'H.E.L.P' Tutors are highly experienced and qualified teachers and so you can be sure that your lessons in General or Specialist English will be well planned, expertly and professionally conducted, and cover all the areas you need such as reading, writing and of course listening and speaking. You simply tell us in advance if you wish to do a General English course or if you would like to focus on a special area such as 'Business English' or 'English for University/Law/Journalism etc' And don't forget to tell us what leisure activities you like so that we can make sure that the on-going leisure programme has something for you.

Don't forget that in addition to the formal lessons, you will at the same time enjoy real Irish lifestyle and hospitality by being treated as a 'member of the family' during your whole stay. You will also have plenty of relaxed opportunities to communicate and continue to receive linguistic support during your breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as during the leisure activities.

It is no surprise that students of English of whatever age find that their English has improved dramatically by the end of the course. As our motto at Atlantic SEAL is 'If you don't want to lose it, use it!' - the Home English course certainly gives you plenty of opportunities to practise and be continuously learning in a warm, supportive and relaxed environment.
