Why go on a language study trip to Ireland? Quite simply, a language study trip in an environment where English is spoken in everyday life is a booster for language skills and motivation to learn. Although Irish (the Celtic Irish Gaelic) is officially promoted in Ireland and many street and place signs greet you first in this language, English is the most widely spoken language in Ireland and also the most common mother tongue among the population.

For an Irish language study trip, "Eire" fans and the curious ("Eire" is the Irish Gaelic name of the country) are spoiled for choice between language courses in various cities, especially:

• Dublin: In the lively and diverse capital of the Republic of Ireland and one of the oldest university cities in the world, all the sights and shopping areas are within walking distance and the nearest pub or music venue is never far away.
• Cork: Located on the south coast, Ireland's second largest city is known for its lively jazz, film and folk scene and is close to unique natural landscapes such as Killarney National Park and the Ring of Kerry.
• Galway: The charming university city on the west coast of Ireland with its colorful mix of houses, numerous galleries and pubs in the alleyways of the old town is considered the gateway to the unspoiled landscapes of Connemara. And if you prefer a quieter pace, you can simply relax on the nearby sandy beaches of Salthill after your language course.

Irish language schools offer well-organized English language stays with half-day or full-day courses for different age groups. There are shorter language courses and long-term courses, courses focused on communication or business English, as well as comprehensive English courses in preparation for an international language diploma. As a rule, the language schools also organize accommodation in a hall of residence or with a family connection in Irish host families.

The easiest way to plan your language study trip to Ireland is to contact a language travel provider.
