PACE Language Institute was established in 1990 to provide an environment within which students can enjoy Ireland and receive first class tuition in the English language. We are located in the beautiful seaside town of Bray just 30 minutes by highspeed train from Dublin's city centre. Every amenity is available in this beautiful and picturesque area close to the Garden of Ireland, the lakes and mountains of Co. Wicklow and the Dublin Mountains
All our teachers are university graduates with full TOEFL qualifications
All levels are catered for from Beginner to Proficiency. Students are given an assessment test on arrival and the result of this test determines at which level they will commence their classes
Due to the small numbers in each class students are guaranteed individual attention and are constantly monitored throughout their course and may advance to higher levels depending on their progress.
Currently we are teaching at eight different levels and while the majority of our students fall into the intermediate and pre-intermediate levels, we also have an active elementary level
On completion of the course each student is presented with a certificate of attendance and a written progress report.
Location: Bray
Bray, known as the Gateway to the Garden of Ireland, is now the eighth largest town in Ireland with a population well in excess of 27,000 and is positioned in northeast Wicklow, just south of Dublin.Tourism has always been associated with Bray, which is the longest established seaside town in the country.
Today, Bray is a vibrant holiday resort and boasts fine hotels and guesthouse accommodation, shops, restaurants and evening entertainment. Available in the immediate locality are fifteen 18-hole golf courses, tennis, fishing, sailing and horse riding. Other features of Bray are the amusement and games centre.
There is also a Leisure centre on Quinsboro Road, and a National Sealife Centre on Strand Road. It has a safe beach of sand and shingle to walk on, which is over 1.6km (1 mile) long, fronted by a spacious esplanade. The scene is dominated by Bray Head, which rises steeply (241m/790 ft) above the sea, affording views of mountains and sea. The name of the town means "hill, rising ground".
