"I have three siblings (7, 11, 14) who would like to study English in Cork. The parents will be there. Therefore, they do not need housing. Can you offer courses for juniors without housing?"

aline neel, student from
Aoife Govern, International House: Dublin school representative

Yes we can but only for the 11 and 14 year old. The 7 year old is too young. If they wish to take the course only (15 hours tuition per week). Do they also want to have the hot lunch & afternoon activities until approximately 5pm?
