Locations
Welcome to Fáilte Isteach Conversational English classes. Our classes are informal, free of charge and focused on English conversation. Fáilte Isteach classes are operating in all 26 counties in Ireland, across multiple communities. Our groups are tutored by volunteers and are a great place to improve language and meet people. Classes are open to all and cater for all levels of English.
Many of our classes have now resumed in-person, while others have taken a blended approach with a mix of face-to-face and online class times.
To find out more about your local Fáilte Isteach class, contact the local coordinator from the locations list below.
Please note: online classes are online for students living in Ireland and are not open to students living outside of Ireland.
