Study abroad options for Irish second level students.
We propose flexible options to meet the different needs and budgets of students interested in improving their language skills
by TOTAL IMMERSION in a foreign language. Host family accommodation is central to each of these programmes for programmes for second level students. Most students will be in the age range of 12 - 17 years.
TWO WAY EXCHANGE: A two way exchange is often called a real exchange. It is a reciprocal exchange between two selected host families. The Irish student travels abroad and lives for a set number of weeks with their exchange partner. They live and speak with the exchange family as a member of the family. The foreign student comes to Ireland to stay with the Irish family for the same number of weeks and learns English and participates in the daily life of their exchange family. Families are matched as far as possible by age, interests and availability to travel and host. This option is available during school year and during school holidays. This is the most economical way of travelling abroad to learn a second language.
2022 Prices for two way exchanges start at €400 for exchanges up to 4 weeks long. €550 for up to 8 weeks
Our two way exchanges between Ireland, France, Spain and Germany provide excellent opportunities for Irish Students to develop and improve their confidence in speaking a foreign language. The most popular European languages for Irish students are French Spanish and German.
Most German students want to participate in a two way exchange during the school year only and not during summer holidays.
Experiencing a new culture and country first-hand opens the door to host of new experiences, expanding your comfort zone, which in turn can do wonders for your confidence. Learning and communicating in the language of a foreign country while living there is without doubt the best way of learning simply because you never stop learning.
Everywhere you turn you’re faced with opportunities to hear, read, and use your new language. Basically, your entire environment becomes your classroom.
ACCOMMODATION: All accommodation is provided by your exchange family, as part of a two way exchange.
FLIGHTS AND AIRPORT TRANSFERS: Flights are not included in any of our programmes. You will be advised on which airport is closest to your host family. Each transfer arrangement is specific to each placement but in general transfers from the point of arrival will be facilitated by the exchange / host family or by your local coordinator. An extra fee may apply for transfers.
