Babel Academy of English

Babel Academy of English is an English language school in the centre of Dublin, on Eden Quay beside the Liffey. It teaches adults and juniors: general and exam English, Erasmus+ courses for teachers and groups, and a junior summer school for students aged 11 to 17. The junior programme runs in two forms — a homestay option based at Manor House in Raheny, a coastal Dublin suburb about twenty minutes by train from the centre, and a university residence option on the Dublin City University campus, where lessons and activities take place on site. Classes are capped at sixteen students, every student sits an entry-level test and receives a course book, materials and a certificate on completion, and the package is full board with airport transfers, a midweek social programme and a full-day Saturday excursion. A separate residential programme for school groups runs on the South East Technological University campus in Waterford. Host families are recruited and inspected by the school itself.
