English Course
Intensive General English — Cork
About this program
Push your English further in Ireland's second city — compact, characterful and fiercely independent, with a food scene that rivals cities twice its size. With 26 lessons per week spread across morning and afternoon sessions (09:00 - 13:00 Mon to Fri, 14:00 - 16:00 Tues to Thurs), this Intensive General English course delivers significantly more contact time than the standard programme — ideal for learners who want faster, more visible progress. All levels are welcome. Cork's compact city centre means the walk from classroom to café, bookshop or harbour takes minutes, turning every break into a natural extension of your studies.
