We don’t say that, our students do

Past Student

“I had a very good experience studying at Dorset College and I’d definitely recommend the school to my friends.The atmosphere was really good and the teachers were well prepared almost all of them are Irish. The Director and his administrative area will always be willing to help you.The location is good because is very close to the city center, there are many options of cafes and restaurants for students to enjoy.”

“My experience in Dorset can be described as unique. Very rarely a student is so lucky to find a place where you can learn and make friends for life as Dorset. The teachers are amazing, very patient, and important support throughout this journey to improve our English. We have classes that allow you to, not only improve your English skills but also learn a little bit about the world in general. I was happy enough to be introduced to Irish history while studying there, visiting museums, and using my English knowledge in real life. The staff is very helpful and friendly, always ready to help you if you have any issues or doubts. You really feel like you’re a part of something, not only a number.  I’m forever grateful for the opportunity of being a part of this community!”
