The Emerald Cultural Institute provides quality English language and professional-development programmes to students from over 60 countries.

Our year-round centre Palmerston Park School is located in a prime residential neighbourhood within easy reach of Dublin city centre (15min Bus or Luas tram). Set in its own beautifully landscaped gardens, it overlooks one of Dublin’s oldest public parks, Palmerston Park, which dates from 1894. Our school combines the gracious feel of its original Victorian mansion with its custom-designed modern facility, to create a student-centred, stress-free learning environment.

Our wide range of General English courses offer our new and innovative Integrated Language Learning programme which allows students to develop 21st century soft skills in dynamic content-led classes. ECI’s teacher-development programmes have included courses for non-native teachers of English at primary and secondary level, including CLIL programmes for teachers of English and other subjects.

Throughout the years we have received numerous students in our courses under the Erasmus+ programme; both teaching staff as well as staff involved in educational administration and management.

ECI offer both homestay and residential accommodation options for our year round adult students and in summer we run seven junior centres in Dublin (homestay and residential) and three in the UK (residential).

At ECI our primary objective is to provide all our students with the fullest and most satisfying educational and cultural experience.
