“I hosted a student from France a couple of years ago and my daughter did an exchange. So she went to France for a month and then the girl from France came here for a month. And it was so much more fun. You get to explore your country again that you didn’t get to before. You get to teach someone some parts of your culture. It renews a sense of pride you have in Ireland. And just exciting to shape them and to teach them new things and to see the excitement.”

Where Does It Take Place? 📍
The programs are available in various regions of Ireland, including Dublin, Galway, Cork, and Limerick, offering students the opportunity to learn English in an authentic native-speaking environment.
“My student is very, very shy and quiet. So if I can get a smile out of him, that’s huge. And even his parents say, my son is very happy. I’m in touch with his parents every single day. Sometimes two, three times a day. I’m sending them pictures of what we’re doing every day. And the parents are so grateful and so happy. And it’s just exciting to see something through someone else’s eyes and to see the excitement in them. If you can do it, it’s fabulous. I’m happy to do it again.”
