Afternoon classes: B1 and above. Afternoon courses are for learners at B1 (Intermediate) level or higher; learners below B1 study in morning classes. If you are booking from outside Ireland, we can only confirm an afternoon class with evidence of your level: a recognised English exam, or a test we arrange for you. If you cannot show your level, please book a morning course. Your level is confirmed by placement test before you start; in the unlikely event that your level is not available in the afternoon, you will be offered a morning class and you must pay the difference in tuition fees.
