Soumaia: A Story of Success

Image Soumaia took temporary leave of absence from her job in a cosmetics company in Paris and came to study at Alpha for six months in order to improve her English.

She started the intensive course with an elementary level and thanks to her hard work and Alpha’s teachers’ efficiency she reached an upper intermediate level.  Thanks to her new level of English, Soumaia will soon start a wonderful job in London.  We wish her every success in her new career!

"Dublin, 9th November 2006,

Having undertaken a six months English language course with Alpha College, both my written and oral English have dramatically improved.The course itself, along with living with an Irish family, have been very enjoyable and educational. I now have an excellent grasp of English, which will be hugely beneficial to me in my future career. I would not hesitate to recommend Alpha College. 

Thank you.
Sincerely,

Soumaia"

 

 

 

College News

Giulia is an Italian student who came to Alpha College as part of a group on an English & Work Experience Programme.  After she studied at Alpha for three weeks to improve her level of English, she did a work experience placement in an Irish Art Gallery: Urban Retreat Gallery.
Over her time there, Giulia got the opportunity to organise her own exhibition, from start to finish. Irene, an Italian student from the same group as Giuila also worked part-time on the organisation of the event.

The exhibition, "A View of Tuscany", was held on 17th April in the presence of some prominent figures of the Italian community in Dublin as well as artists and journalists. Giulia was even interviewed by the Dublin Italian newspaper Periodico Degli Italiani e Amici Dell'Italia en Irlanda and her interview will be published in June.  Here are some photos of Giulia's exhibition and her comments.
