Photos of Student Trip to Chester Beatty Library and Dublin Castle
Here are some photos of our student trip to the Chester Beatty Library and Dublin Castle . The Chester Beatty Library is a fantastic museum to visit in the gardens of Dublin Castle. It was voted European museum of the year in 2002 and has a collection of beautiful Oriental and Asian treasures. It's free to enter the museum and it is set in the wonderful gardens of Dublin Castle. A very nice place for a peaceful afternoon! Chester Beatty Library Enjoy!

Free Irish Music Night - Friday 28th Jan
Free traditional Irish music night! This Friday night! All students and friends are welcome!
Continuing our regular cultural programme, the DLTC language school is having a traditional Irish music night on the 28th January. The event takes place in the Harbour bar and grill on Marine Road in Dun Laoghaire (see on google map) and is free for all DLTC Language School students and their friends. If you attend another language school, but want to come, you are very welcome but just let us know with an RSVP on our facebook event page .
The event will feature traditional Irish musicians in a typical pub location. It starts at 9pm and finishes at 11pm so you still have time to get a bus or a DART home or to the city centre (to continue the party!).
The traditional music night we had last month was a great success (despite the snow and ice!) with about 50 students attending - thanks to Claire we had a guitarist and a fiddle (violin) player and two fantastic Irish dancers. The dancers showed us how the traditional dances are done and then did a great job in getting some of the audience up to try it for themselves. Have a look at the video from last month!
The DLTC language school aims to promote the learning of foreign languages and the experience of cultures through our language courses (English courses, Spanish classes, Italian classes, French classes etc) and our regular cultural events that will take place throughout 2011.
Hope to see you all there!

Spanish and Italian Evening Classes starting January & February 2011
The DLTC Spanish and Italian Evening classes for the new year are scheduled to start over the coming weeks from 17th January 2011.
There are many great reasons to choose DLTC Spanish and Italian language courses:
There are many great reasons to choose DLTC Spanish and Italian language courses:
- Genuinely small class sizes (average 8 students per class)
- qualified native teachers from Spain, Italy and Latin-America
- hour-for-hour best value prices among Dublin language schools (185euro for a 20 hour course - compare that to the other specialised language schools and remember we are purely a language school - so language courses our speciality)
- 5 different levels available in each language and level assessments available so you will be in the correct class for your ability and needs
- Easy to access - we are 200 metres from Dun Laoghaire DART station (20 minutes from Dublin city centre); the 7, 45A, 59, 75, 111 buses all stop within 200 metres of the school; and if you are driving, there is lots of free on-street parking directly outside our premises (parking is free from 7pm and our courses start at 7.15pm)
- 'Speaking' focused.- all our courses focus especially on speaking the language as this is often considered by students to be the most difficult skill to acquire and to get the opportunity to practise
So if you're looking to learn Spanish for traveling in Latin-America or for relaxing at your holiday home in Spain; or want to learn Italian to order wine and good food in Tuscany; or you want to learn either language for work, travel or enjoyment, then join our DLTC evening language courses or private courses.
