The Centre

There is something magical about Dublin, and our centre is located right in the middle of this vibrant capital. Our students are perfectly placed to enjoy the sights and sounds of the Irish capital.

Dublin, a UNESCO City of Literature, is packed with opportunities for students to experience the fascinating Irish culture while practising their English. The school is only moments away from the Temple Bar area, the National Gallery of Ireland and St Stephen's Green.

Students at this centre can enjoy the beautiful Georgian architecture of this school. Built in the early 19th century, our classrooms offer a hint of the old, with modern technology throughout. 

This school is centrally located at our two locations:

4 North Great George's Street  and 31 Gardiner Place

• Academic Leadership: Twin English Centre Dublin (formerly Alpha College of English) is led by ELT professionals with decades of English language research and experience in teaching and learning.

• The Twin Dublin communicative teaching method: Our teaching method focuses on communication, the fundamental core of language. This places great emphasis on students’ fluency, coherence and creativity—helping students develop the skills they will need to use every day as English speakers.
