Club 50

The school in Ireland has designed an exciting English language course exclusively for the over 50's age group. The Club 50 course combines enjoyable English language practice with exciting opportunities to explore Ireland's unique cultural heritage.

In addition to language classes (2 lessons per day), the program consists of various activities (also 2 lessons per day).

In the morning you start with 2 lessons in which all aspects of learning the English language are discussed, with an emphasis on practical language use. So what do you need to express yourself well in English in everyday life. The other 2 lessons most days take place outside the school building and are filled with so-called "excursion lessons". For example, the participants visit a square where there is a lot of art and discuss it. Other examples include a visit to the National Museum or an "Oscar Wilde" walk through Dublin.
