Our General English Courses are designed to offer students the opportunity to take top quality English classes and have the flexibility to experience all that makes Dublin so special.
There is a detailed syllabus for each level and a course book and supplementary material are used in conjunction with the syllabus. The syllabus covers the four skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing as well as pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar activities.
Classes are generally task-based and always interactive with students and teachers continually working together to improve language output. Class work includes individual, pair and group work, teacher-led discussions, debates, presentations, written tasks and listening exercises.
At the beginning of each week the language objectives for that week are posted in the classrooms so that students can see what language areas and activities will be covered.
Students take a progress test at the end of each week on aspects of the work covered during that week.
Each week a project topic is introduced to the class and in the second class on each Friday students present their project work to the class. The 12-week project syllabus includes mini-presentations, discussions, reviews, readers, news stories, problem solving, investigations, newsletters, excursion planning and debates.
Alpha College is located in the city centre just 10 minutes walk to the focal point of Dublin, the Spire. Alpha's main building is a Georgian building on one of the most well-preserved Georgian streets in Dublin. There are lots of interesting places for students very close to the school including museums, galleries, restaurants, cafes, bars, shopping areas and historical sites. If students are lucky, they may even spot a famous actor or director as North Great George's Street is quite a popular street for shooting movies and series set in 18th and 19th Century.

"It was very good experience to learn english"
Louis Gaultier,
學生表格 法國
(Translated by Google Translate)
I really liked to classes and the teachers, they were here to teach and make the activity fun to make you feel it's more a game than a boring classes it was a good one. It was very easy to come with the bus and to find the school, and it's the city center so really simple. But I do think it's better to rent an apartment or an house during the trip and work in the city than going into a family house.
"Interesting topics, explained by good teachers with lack of organisation"

I really liked the classes, because they challenged me and the teachers were very friendly. It was very practical that the school is located just a few minutes from the center.
The Orientation Tour and the Howth trip were pleasant and enjoyable.
My host family surpassed all my expectations. They cooked vegetarian for me and were always friendly.
The school just did not seem to have their ELearning Platform all under control, because many students did not receive the link to sign up.
