About the School
Founded in Dublin, Ireland in 1979, CES has grown into an international language school with 9 centers operating year-round in Ireland, England, Scotland, and Canada. Drawing on more than 40 years of experience and expertise, we teach English to students from all over the world. CES started out as a family-run school and has grown steadily. We are proud of our history, grateful to all the students who have been with us so far, and happy to welcome the new students who will join us in the future. At all CES schools in Ireland, England, and Canada, teachers are selected not only for their experience but also for their enthusiastic and positive attitude and their ability to make language learning enjoyable. All CES schools offer homestay accommodation, and on request, some schools also offer alternative accommodation options such as residences and hotels. CES has won numerous awards recognized by independent external organizations such as Study Travel Magazine (worldwide), Languagecourses.Net (worldwide), Ryugaku Journal (Japan), and **UED (Turkey)**. All schools except Vancouver also offer IELTS, Cambridge, and OET exams.
