Tailor-Made Programs

At the core of many of our programs is the development of communication skills in real life settings. As well as covering the four basic skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening, we have designed varying activities that gives our students opportunities to practice their conversational skills with local students in a relaxed but supervised environment at a level that’s tailored to suit them.

Safe Location

Ireland is internationally recognized as a friendly, safe country, which is backed up by statistical research and various surveys. For some, the prospect of leaving home and heading off into the unknown is daunting, but studying abroad is also an exciting challenge that often leads to improved career opportunities and a broader understanding of the way the world works. Choosing to study in Ireland, which is one of the safest locations in the world…there is no better option

The Irish have a huge maternal side and love to welcome or ‘mother’ new guests. If staying with a host family, you’re sure to be treated as one of the family. All of Ireland’s higher education institutions and Equinox Education Services have a designated staff member to whom international students can turn for any assistance. Simply put, we’re a friendly, welcoming bunch of people, and that’s why international students get so much out of the Irish experience.

Unrivalled Value For Money

An academic term or year abroad provides students with an invaluable opportunity for personal development, increasing cultural knowledge and awareness, and gaining confidence in using another language. The value for money we provide in facilitating this unique opportunity is second to none. When you consider the levels of support for students on our programs, this value becomes even more apparent.
