The class had a good size , you could make groups for exercising an issue ,but it was not to noisy at the time of exercise with the variety of lessons and exercises you never get bored. It was easy to come to the school and the school is very central to everything that is a big plus !! Unfortunately I could not do much of the activities but I really liked the selection , you could have done so much ,I would have liked to make the Galway tour but it was a little bit to expensive for me , but this is not the problem of CES , I just could not afford it. To the housing I have to say that It was a nice quite house ,where you can rest after school and live peacefully with the other students ,but I had a problem with the restroom, there was mold I think it was mold ,maybe you could renovate them but this was the only thing I did not like , my house was Crestfield 43 . I really appreciated the experience . I love the city and the people. CES was the best choice that my mother could have made for me!

Four teachers have taught me, and all of them were very friendly and they have taught me very well. In addition to that, the method was appropriate for me. It was not easy; it was very difficult for me. However, it was not too difficult for me so if I paid attention, I could understand it and I could learn new things every single day.
The location of the school was nice and good; so many facilities were available near it.
I have not tried any type of activity. The reason is I am not interested in it so much so I do not have an opinion about it, although so many people (like my friends, classmates and my room mate) told me that some activities were very good
Finally the housing was so nice. My host family was so friendly they always made sure that I felt comfortable and happy.
Overall I enjoyed the summer in Dublin and I hope I can gain this experience again.
In my opinion, CES Dublin is the best place in Dublin for learning English because I talked with students from another schools, and always find my school is better.
I had the best teachers ever. And I want to tell you about my host family. This people give me anything they can. I really appreciated this. I felt like I'm in my home.
Overall, organization ( teacher, host family, other staff) is really good.
It was a nice experience.
