TEFL Limerick | TEFL Ireland

Our TEFL training centre in the city of Limerick is located in Ireland's sunny southwest province of Munster. Limerick is an historical city with features dating as far back as a Viking settlement in 812. King Johns Castle, Bunratty Castle, the Hunt Museum (located in the city centre) and St. Mary's Cathedral, Limerick's oldest building, are some of Ireland's most famous historical attractions. Limerick is also a bustling cosmopolitan city, with a variety of shops and boutiques, a vibrant nightlife and stylish restaurants.

The city of Limerick has an abundance of performing and non-performing arts venues. In the city centre, The Belltable Theatre hosts local playwrights and drama, whilst The Limerick City Art Gallery has a permanent collection of Irish art and is also the city's main exhibitor of contemporary art. The University Concert Hall regularly hosts performances of local, national and international music, theatre and opera. For more rustic musical entertainment, many of the local pubs and bars host live music from home and abroad in every style imaginable. There really is something for everyone.

Limerick has a strong tradition in sports and students at our training centre will have the opportunity to both view and take part in a variety of individual and/or team sports. Basketball is played throughout Limerick and, as the home of the Munster rugby team, rugby is a particularly popular sport in the area. A new stadium has recently been opened in Thomond, where TEFL course participants can enjoy a variety of national and international games. Trainees can also play sports such as soccer, tennis and hockey and participate in Gaelic games, including hurling and Gaelic football, in the University Arena.

Limerick is an important educational centre in Ireland and is home to ten higher education institutes with a large and vibrant student population of over 20,000 people, this provides an ideal environment for a TEFL course.
