Fantastic experience: Hi guys, Happy New Year! All the best and good luck for your future studies! Let me share my experience I have had with IHGalway. The main feature of the school is a cosy and comfortable athmosphere there, which so important, especially when you are so far from your home. The athmosphere is not a just a thing or a word, there are people who make it. It begins from administration staff who really help you with all new things you are facing at the arrival in Galway, from providing all convenient and well equipped classes, which is basic thing for studying process, and continues (not ends) with attitude of the teachers, their dedication and endeavour to deliver to us all their knowledge and skills in order we feel confident speaking English. Additionally, it worth to say there are many interesting and I would say educational social activities which school provides in class off time includes Irish dances, even studying Irish language. Being surrounded this incredible athmosthere, putting my efforts in studying English everyday, I felt that my English became more rich, I began almost automatically think on English when I speak out. And I really happy with that. Furthermore, I met many interesting students in the school some of who we are became friend with and hanging out after classes). By the way, I love that school is located in very centre of the city, on the Eyre Square, there are all emedities on a hand, plus I usually ride a bike and right in front of the school there is a ruck parking for bicycles. I really satisfied with my choice, with knowledge and experience I have got within school. And Yes, I certainly can say IH Galway is a cool school. I wish the school many sound students and new development as a institution.

Fantastic experience: Located in the centre of Galway (Eyre Square), I can asure that IH Galway is a good option for you if you want to improve your English skills. All the teachers are native speakers and very professional, they're always willing to help you even if you're not at classes.
Fantastic experience: I have been studying here for 3 years now. My progress in learning English I can consider astonishing. I had to studying online for 2 years because of the pandemic, but then finally I could go to Galway. I am from Kazakhstan and can say that my way of visa processing, the long way here was worth it. Both online and face-to-face classes, I enjoyed a lot. I was taught by excellent teachers who will find an approach to any student of different ages and interests. Administartion of school always ready to help you at any difficult and controversial moments, and with almost any question. I recommend this school to anyone who wants to quickly improve their language level and also adapt to a new country.
Fantastic experience: Great School! I spent 2 weeks this summer at IH Galway, it was an amanzing experience. Excellent teachers and organization!
Fantastic experience: Hace medio año decidí irme a mejorar mi inglés a Irlanda, concretamente a Galway. Para ello, elegí la academia de IH, ya que me habían hablado muy bien de ella, y efectivamente así fue. Es una academia situada en el centro de la ciudad, pequeñita y acogedora. El grupo de profesores y profesionales tanto de administración como de dirección son geniales. Gente joven dispuesta a ayudarte en todo lo que haga falta y con un trato cercano que te hacen olvidar su puesto de trabajo convirtiéndose incluso en tus amigos. Gracias a ellos el primer mes lo pasé en una casa increíble con una señora que hasta me ayudó a encontrar el que fué mi trabajo por todos esos meses. Y en cuanto al método de enseñanza me gustó mucho porque hacíamos mucha interacción con nuestros compañeros en clase y eso hacía que te soltases bastante a la hora del speaking. Os la recomiendo 100%.
Fantastic experience: It was the best idea to study in that English school!) I had a great time during lessons . I met a lot of interesting people there All staff is very nice and friendly It is a wonderful place for studying
Fantastic experience: Mejor lugar para estudiar imposible. Ubicación exelente, profesores muy profesionales con un staff que esta 24/7 para ayudarte. Nosotros somos una pareja de argentina que llegamos con mi novia ya hace un año. Llegamos sin saber nada de Irlanda o de galway y nuestro inglés mejoro muchísimo llegamos al nivel que queríamos y gracias a eso pudimos trabajar y vvir con la gente local sin ningún problema, Leo que es una de las personas que trabaja en IH nos ayudó mucho siempre vamos a estar muy agradecidos por como nos ayudaron con absolutamente todo nos hicieron sentir en casa por más que estamos tan lejos mil gracias.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful experience in Galway, all staff members are very kind and friendly, the lessons are very interactive and funny, all the teacher are really good. Thanks!
Fantastic experience: excellent location. at the center of everything. excellent teachers and quality teaching. I really enjoyed my time studying at IH Galway
Fantastic experience: My experience in Galway has been absolutely amazing! The school is in the centre of Galway and in Galway you can find an incredible atmosphere where you can feel immediately at home. The locals are friendly and always happy to help you. The accommodation the school gave me was near the city centre and I had the opportunity to share this wonderful experience with different other students from every part of the world. The teachers and all the stuff has been really king and friendly since the first day I was there; moreover, the school organizes trips and a lot of different activities to socialize with the others students and to visit the stunning landscapes of the Wild Atlantic Coast. Don't miss them! As far as my teachers are concerned, I cannot find the words to thank them; they have been extremely professional, but at the same time really friendly and I felt at ease from the very beginning. I would like to recommend this experience to everyone and I'm sure you will fall in love with Galway and with International House Galway.
Fantastic experience: We have collaborated with the team at IH Galway for the last 5 years and have always found them to be an extremely professional group of people who are dedicated to giving their students and clients the best possible service. The quality of teaching at IH Galway is exemplary and this was one of the principle reasons that we sought to work with the school on many innovative digital learning options during the pandemic. As a well-established teacher training centre, as well as an accredited English language school, IH Galway has got the pedagogical expertise that we were looking for. However, the two the most compelling reasons for choosing to improve your English at IH Galway are: the beautiful location and the wonderful people who work there. We recommend them 100%.
Fantastic experience: I can only have good words and an excellent valuation for IHG. The school is very well located in the beautiful city center of Galway. The building and facilities and very nice, with bright and spacious classrooms. From my experience, I can say that staff is always friendly, available and resolute. Even if they didn't have a specific learning scheme for kids, they proposed a very well adapted one-to-one lesson for my 10 years old son. He enjoyed the lessons very much and learned a lot with great teachers Arlene and Laila. Additionally, the accommodations are in good conditions and well located. I absolutely want to repeat the experience next year and recommend it thoughtfully.
Fantastic experience: Great experience! IH Galway is an incredible academy and the teachers are professionals. Galway is a wonderful city.
Fantastic experience: Great teachers! Great school! The accommodation was near the Eyre Square.
Fantastic experience: Now that the last week of the CELTA is done (and we all passed--hurray!), I'm marveling at what a tremendous program IH has put together. I come from the world of writing centers, which tend to be warm, friendly, helpful places where students and their needs are taken seriously. I've found that same kind of environment at IH Galway, where people from many different backgrounds come together to learn from each other. As a CELTA candidate, I got to teach English to people from Ukraine, Somalia, Brazil, and Spain, and they taught me to be a better teacher of English. I tend to think the best evidence of a program's success isn't test scores (though those have their place), but the joy people experience while working together. At IH, the tutors, CELTA candidates, and students all work our butts off, but we also laugh and joke a lot--in a lot of different accents!
Fantastic experience: Being an intern at International House Galway is such a great experience. Not only because I’ve learned loads of things related to my professional aspects, but to my use of English. I give you my word that it’s absolutely a good decision to join this academy.
Negative experience: Nothing good to say about this school my friend went in there last year and left. The girl at the reception was mean no communication or understanding whatsoever. Waste of time and money.
Fantastic experience: Studying at IH Galway has been very beneficial for me, my English has improved incredibly quickly and I don't regret leaving my country to study here in Ireland at all. Galway is an amazing city, very attractive! Don't hesitate to get started!!
Fantastic experience: This is a great school
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderfoul learning experience, never boring, never stressful. Our lessons were full of joy and smiles...of course also grammar. The school prepare every week some social event that give you the opportunity to meet the other students and share experience with them. Is not only an english course, is an international exchange. How about teachers? Perfect!
Fantastic experience: I have been studing here for 6 months and I only can say good things. The teachers are profesionals and the atmosphere in the academy is incredible. All the team will try to make you feel good and confortable. If you are thinking to study abroud, this is your academy. I will always have good memories of this place.
Fantastic experience: Great experience! It’s not just to improve your english, but also you meet amazing teachers and an extraordinary staff. They are ready to help you for everything.

Fantastic experience: Online classes with International House Galway are great. I improved my grammar and pronunciation. I found a very international atmosphere there and met many wonderful people.
Fantastic experience: I took live online English classes with International House Galway for several months in 2020. It was an excellent experience. Our teacher (Claire) was very professional, friendly, and used online teaching tools to always keep us engaged. The classes were well organised and I got to practice reading, writing, listening and speaking in English. We often worked in groups or pairs, which really bonded the whole class and we all felt connected, despite the physical distance. IH Galway has a caring environment that encourages development. There is also a social programme which allows you to meet with students form other IH schools from all over the world, and learn about things such as photography, mindfulness or even karate. I intend to re-enrol in the future, as I know that I can trust the IH Galway team to help me achieve my goal of successfully passing the C1 exam
Fantastic experience: Online classes are great! Lovely and supportive teachers and amazing atmosphere:))
Fantastic experience: I recently did an online course and loved it. No better time to learn a language then during lockdown!! The teacher was really engaging and I'll definitely be enrolling for the next level.
Fantastic experience: I completed an online course and enjoyed it so much. I also got to know a nice bunch of people through it too
Fantastic experience: Delighted to see the buzz that International House Galway is doing in promoting Ireland's beautiful West Coast. Students not only rave about the teaching but also about the positive modern culture of the school and the wonderful introduction to our Wild Atlantic Way and the vibrant city of Galway.
Fantastic experience: Very nice place to go! Everything was amazing!!! We were so happy to have Linda as our teacher! She was so nice, helpful and kind! We have fallen in love with her and Ireland! International House Galway is the right choice. I would recommend everyone to experience it.
