Cambridge CELTA-qualified group leader from Sofia
Bulgarian speaker available throughout
International centre, students from across Europe
Full board, en-suite campus accommodation
Full board
Every meal covered, from dinner on arrival to breakfast on departure day. Nothing left to plan or pay for once you land.
Ages 12–17
Old enough to explore, young enough to need looking after – so we as leaders stay close, whatever the age.
International, grouped by level
A placement test before departure places every student by CEFR level, alongside students from across Europe — not just their own classmates from home.
Lenny, Cambridge CELTA-qualified
Cambridge CELTA-qualified, travelling with the group from Sofia to Dublin and back and with them for the whole stay.
Native Bulgarian speaker
With the group throughout the stay — the person parents can always reach directly, in Bulgarian.
NCI, in the heart of Dublin
Campus accommodation at the National College of Ireland, in Dublin Docklands — a short walk from Temple Bar and the city centre.
One destination, many options.

They won't just study English. They'll live it.
Immersion English Summer Programme for Teens in Dublin
The right class level, a group small enough to actually be heard in, and someone they know close by the whole time. That's what makes a week abroad turn into real immersion.
A city built for immersion
Not just a classroom – a real English-speaking capital, known for its warm, welcoming people. Weekly excursions in Dublin, the harbour village of Howth, and a full day trip to Kilkenny keep the English going long after the lesson ends.
An international experience
Small classes, averaging 13 students, with peers from across Europe and beyond – not just other Bulgarian teenagers. A full international summer centre in Dublin Docklands, ten minutes' walk from the city centre.

Supported, every step of the way.

Lenny and Lina travel with the group from Sofia and stay for the whole programme. With Lina speaking Bulgarian, and a welfare manager and medical staff on site around the clock, someone is always there for your child, and for you.
