For over 12 years, Atlas Language School has been dedicated to designing and organising exceptional courses and training programmes for teachers and people working in education. Beginning with a group of teachers from Slovenia in 2011 on a Comenius project, we have continuously developed these programmes to become a leading provider of Erasmus+ teacher and staff development courses.
With our team of highly-qualified and experienced trainers, who have a wealth of ideas to share, we offer a variety of engaging and impactful Erasmus+ teacher and staff development courses for those working in primary and secondary schools, VET colleges, adult education, and in Higher Education. There is a focus on providing participants with practical ready-to-use ideas based on the latest technological developments, and we also place a great emphasis on participants digging deeper into Irish and Maltese culture, via safe discussion in our lessons and the exciting social programme outside the classroom.
Whether you prefer to participate as part of a group or on an individual basis, we have the perfect course for you. Courses last for either 1 or 2 weeks and various accommodation options are available for participants throughout their stay. All of our courses are 100% eligible for Erasmus+ mobility grants.

We really liked the course and the international environment at Atlas. Our favorite thing about the course was definitely the content related to the UN 2030 agenda on sustainability and the environment.
I had the amazing opportunity to take part in a General English course Erasmus + at Atlas Language School in Dublin. This immersive language program offered me valuable knowledge and skills to enhance my English proficiency. The teachers at the school were dedicated and knowledgeable, creating an environment conducive to learning.One of the highlights of my stay in Dublin was the opportunity to engage with a diverse group of students from different countries. Through group activities and discussions I improved my language skills and I gained a deeper appreciation for various cultures.
I spent two weeks in Atlas in Dublin with teachers from several European countries and was absolutely satisfied. Our teachers prepared lots of useful materials. We spoke about the Irish culture, improved our vocabulary, discussed various topics and practised various teaching tips. After school they showed us some interesting places in Dublin. All of us – including our teachers – learnt a lot about the other people´s countries and had a lot of fun.
Our stay at Atlas Language School was great. The secretarial staff were helpful and very supportive. The courses offered were very appealing: in addition to theoretical inputs in the morning, suitable excursions and visits to Dublin’s sights were organized in the afternoon. The teachers were keen to improve and reinforce our language skills. We enjoyed our time in Dublin a lot.
