How does the Summer Language School work?
Our Summer Language School is available for student groups aged 12 to 17 years. We recruit teaching staff for our Junior Centres who will motivate and encourage junior students to build on the English they already know. We also use AI English learning software tools and bring learning to the student participant, at their level.
Mornings at the Junior Centres are divided into two sessions and usually have two teachers and each student has a tablet and AI English Learning software, to hand. The first session concentrates on reading skills, writing skills and key grammar. The class of max #12 students is organised so that learning is fun and interactive, resulting in consistent progress. After a mid-morning break students concentrate on improving their oral skills using role-play, debate, project work, learning about their surroundings in Ireland and the cultural landmarks visited during their stay.
Our school is based in a small town in the beautiful Irish countryside. This friendly, semi-rural setting provides peace of mind for parents and teachers about the safety and security of students while they are away from home. In contrast to schools in larger cities, our students benefit from becoming part of the friendly local community during their stay.
Our programs are action-packed with fun and exciting activities, ensuring students are engaged, occupied and motivated at all times. LXI deliver a full day on site - 9am to 4pm daily on the school grounds.
The 2025 Summer Language School is limited to max #36 students.
