The ethos of the local community in lyrics
The simple lyrics below were included by Laura in a rendered version of the traditional “I’ll Tell Me Ma” (or “The Belle of Belfast City”) and express very well the ethos of the local community:
When we dance we dance together,
When we cry we hold each other,
When we love we love forever
Down by the Lagan side
What you may do in Holywood 2026
Conversations
Conversations engage students on topics of interest and are very helpful to develop fluent English and verbal communications
Drama Classes
Drama skills are powerful educational tools that nourish self-confidence, social interactions and more...
Folk Dances
Irish dances (Ceilidh) strengthen the bond amid people in a joyful atmosphere, helping concentration and motor-coordination
Singing
Singing shapes the individual voice, boosts self-confidence, enhances the joy of working and living together in harmony
Arts
Artistic activities help develop imagination and creativity facilitating the second language acquisition (a Celtic Batik in the photo)
Crafts
Crafts are the proper "hands-on" realm! Students can explore their creativity while freely taking risks and solving problems
Social Events
The photo above shows the AEL gathering at Ivy Bar, where our students meet and enjoy to be with the local community
Stunning Scenarios!
Northern Ireland is a small corner of the world that embed stunning scenarios (in the photo, our students on Giants Causeway)
English Tuition
Our priority is to help students speak English with confidence, be fluent in verbal communications and social interactions, be correct in writing and pronunciation.
The English lessons are dynamic, interactive and encourage students to work in team, practise cooperative learning and become the “responsible creators of their own learning outcomes”.
All creative workshops and even outdoor sessions are “live English in action” and concur to the same target of the English tuition: enjoy understanding and speaking English with confidence!
