ESOL in Galway

Galway, the City of the Fourteen Tribes

Sitting on Ireland’s west coast lies the city of Galway, a hidden jewel of Ireland where both medieval and modern settings coexist together for those who seek for its name. As the 6th most populous city of Ireland, it is one of the fastest growing cities in Europe, filled with vibrant cultures and diverse people.

This small yet lively harbour city is famous for its festivals, having held an average of 122 events per year; hence, bestowed with the title Festival City of Ireland. Besides its rich history of Normans and art, the place is said to be the best destination to pack for when it comes to food in the continent of Europe.

What to do in Galway?

Having bopped your head to Ed Sheeran’s Galway Girl would have given you a bit of a gist into the life that the city of Galway has to offer, but if you haven’t, here are some activities out of myriads of possibilities that you can try to do once you’re in the Galway area.

Dive into the streets of Galway where historical medieval walls line up your perspectives from every corner that you see. Window shop, take a walk on Galway's beautiful magnificent beaches and retire at the best pubs that the whole of Ireland has to offer, special for you.

Should the city’s bursts of energy become too exhausting for you, then a getaway into the countryside part of Galway will certainly blow you away. 

For avid Harry Potter fans, you'll be thrilled to know that one of the fabled scenes from the movie Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was actually shot at this must-see stunning coastline called the Cliffs of Moher. 

Importance of English Language in Galway

While Irish Gaelic is the first official language of the Republic of Ireland, it is not as commonly used as English. It is safe to say that more than 90 percent of Galway’s residents are speaking English on a daily basis.

First introduced by the Cambro-Norman settlers in the 12th century, English was yet to be in the top five of the most widely spoken languages in the country. But in time, the massive assimilation of these settlers into the local people causes the language to eventually emerge as the language that’s spoken during business.

The impact from the past is still in effect to this day as fluency in English becomes one of the most crucial identities of an Irelanders. Therefore, it is highly necessary for those who are to be a part of Galway to be accustomed with the said language well. 

Learning English for speakers of other language (ESOL)

Learning English can be tough for non-native English speakers, especially when it comes to the struggle of outputting the native words that you have in mind into English, in other words, the act of mentally translating.

While speaking is a common challenge, writing and reading is usually a different thing as it is a conscious activity where the learner has enough time to use their passive vocabulary. On the other hand, speech is a subconscious activity where you will be needing active vocabulary running concurrently with your mouth in real time!

It is definitely easier to overcome the obstacles that writing and reading in English serves, but just like life, baby steps are required and we are always welcomed to make mistakes for the purpose of learning.

To be fluent, one must start thinking in English. One of the reasons why it’s so difficult for an individual to express the language in any manners is because they are not mentally speaking in the said language themselves! Integration is important and one of the most effective ways in doing that would be to surround oneself in an English-filled environment.

One does not necessarily need to hit the books. Among the misconceptions when it comes to learning is that to be smart, you need to be book smart. No, humans are more gifted with talents than you can imagine. 

For example, they can instead pick up an English series to watch, or even a Korean drama. The important thing is to make the English element to be present in our life in order for the brain to pick it up. Without realising, our brain has quietly jotted down what we read and heard for our future references. That is how passive learning works.

However, a new method called Active Learning of English Skills recently surfaced, patently proven to help learners to be fluent in English faster as compared to its traditional counterpart. Instead of learning the three required skills separately (Reading, Listening, and Speaking), Active Learning combines all three together. It halts cross-translation from happening in the head and allows learners to start speaking actively before they even learn grammars and vocabularies.

English tutoring as your ultimate solution

Despite it all, one would be lost should they be stepping themselves into unknown lands without prior guidance from the travellers. Hence cue the tutors to enter the stage. 

As public schools are not quite built for around half of the existing archetypes, it might prove difficult for certain students to fit in and learn the common way that methodically fits only a certain group of people's brain. A point should be made that there is absolutely nothing wrong with not catching it the first time and you’re very valid. 

School environments are not that conducive either with how one teacher has to handle a large crowd that can go up to 40 students when they only have four limbs. It is to be expected that some sheep would go astray. What’s more with the current COVID situation where unexpected things like connection problems and in-house distractions become an everyday issue when learning.

Hence, this calls for an extra measure. Here at Superprof, private ESOL courses are offered for students seeking help outside school hours. We are a user-friendly online platform that can help you ease your English woes. Find a professional and certified ESOL tutors here at only €10 per session! The first session is free too!
