Language difficulties
Language of instruction: English
Was learning English a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my English How much did you improve your English?
My level before: Everyday knowledge (shopping, directions, etc.) My level after: At ease in most situations Personal comments:
Just arriving Dublin we had some problems with the language since english language spoken by irish people is sometimes hard to understand,but day by day you get used to it and then you take their way of speaking as well.Complementing the International Business and Languages Course we had "English for academic purposes" at different level and that´s was really helpful for us.Interacting with with foreigner students and irish people when that was possible was a very important to improve our english.

Personal recommendation:

-Travelling around Ireland is recommended. -Take care with your money or it´ll be run out really soon. -Take a house near to the city center,if possible or you´ll spend a lot of money and time travelling. -The food is not really good,but there is not solution for that.
