Cursus beschrijving

The Standard Course in the mornings focuses on practical communication skills with the emphasis on speaking and listening. Reading and writing activities provide you with opportunities to interact with other students. Vocabulary, idioms and grammar are practised in interesting and stimulating ways to achieve fluency.

The TOEIC examination tests your English proficiency in an international working environment and is useful if you wish to work for multinational companies. Businesses, government agencies and other public and private organisations accept TOEIC scores as proof of English skills in professional communication. There are two tests: Listening & Reading, and Speaking & Writing.

ACET will help you to prepare and practise for the internationally recognised examination which benefits your academic studies or career. You receive advice and guidance on the choice of appropriate examination for your level of English and your career objectives. You complete sample examination papers under examination conditions to provide you with the best preparation possible.

At the end of your course, you have the skills and knowledge to successfully complete each component of the examination.

It is possible to take the TOEIC test here in at ACET after you have completed your course.

"It was an exhilarating learning filled experience"

George Gogo, student van Polen

I was able to meet new people and make new friends. I interacted with many students from Spain, Italy, France, Germany and Brazil. the age range varied although the majority were teenagers and young adults. As such it was a refreshing experience to view the world from their point of view.

Learning was structured on the practical aspect of speaking, listening and interacting, which I found very useful as this is the area I need to improve most on. The teachers were extremely competent and knowledgeable in the English language and to that end any question any student had was well answered and explained. The learning materials came in handy and there were weekly tests so as to properly gauge what we had learned. Classes were split according to the level of the students abilities in the English language which ensured that everyone was learning something new and according to their pace.

There were many activities during lectures such as board games, drawing and memorisation exercises which made learning fun and manageable.

The staff at ACET were very friendly and the school was organised in such a manner that you knew who to go to for any particular query you had. The school is also located in a central location where it is easy to get to.

The only obstacle was the cold Irish weather which not much can be done about :-)

"Just what I was looking for"

Claudia Klüskens, student van Duitsland

I participated in the Gold Programme (50+) for two weeks. The course focused on developing practical communication skills in a relaxed and productive atmosphere. We were eight students from five distinct countries with the most German with various language skills/levels. Since I am already an advanced learner I cannot tell if my English skills improved that much. But as offered I developed my language skills and certainly became a more confident speaker. This course was the perfect choice for me to improve my language skills with people my age and interests.
All staff and our teacher Chris were friendly and always willing to help. The location of the academy is next to the center and easily accessible. The facilities were except the wifi availability good. The program included different activities after school and one excursion for the weekend.
My accomodation was at Victoria Lodge student appartments.

"It has been very nice holiday, in a calm and quite city"

Giuseppina Rossi, student van Italië

A nice experience. All my class mates where very young and I think that next time I will do a business English course in order to have other adults in the group. The teacher was American and I enjoyed her style of teaching. The accent was very understandable.

"A very successful experience.The organisation was good and kind"

Elisabeth Farnbacher, student van Duitsland

Our teacher Lorian O'donnal is a encouraging woman and so we had a interesting discussion. Se have empathy an kindness. Mainly the age of the students was very good for me. The activities was nice, the location central. The room unfortunately cold and dark. The class was three persons. One of them from Japan. That was very interesting and intensive. Thanks for all.

"Great experience"

YU LI, student van Ierland

Great classes, very professional teachers and updated facilities.
But I sent my writing composition to the teacher, the reply from the teacher took more than a week, and my second email she never replied to and I don't know why.
Since I attended for only one class, so I only got a little experience from that. Hope this can help you.

"An experience to repeat"

Maria Teresa

My experience in this academy has been positive. The academy is at the center and is connected. The classes are right for the students attending. There are classes that require equipment, and all correctly functioned for the class. The teachers are highly qualified and they answer any questions you may have. Every day, there are some activities after class - some are free while some are not, but the student ID gives us a discount. My host family is a very cozy and friendly family. With both the academy and the family, any questions are answered and solved without the slightest problem. What I like most is the method of study!

"A unique experience to repeat"

laura

My experience in ACET has been very good. At school, there are many people from different countries, and it is a great opportunity to meet new cultures and learn. The teachers are very friendly and they are always willing to help and make your learning experience as fun as possible while you are in the academy. The location of the academy is good because it is next to the centre, and if you live far away you can come by bus or train as it is near ACET. The facilities are great. There are different classrooms, a library, study rooms, and a coffee shop. ACET offers different activities to do after school and excursions for the weekend. I live with a host family, and my host family is very friendly. They are very attentive to me. If I need something, the family is always ready to help me. It is an incredible experience that I recommend to everyone.
