Academic

The Director of Studies is available for students at any time during office hours within the school. The D.O.S. is principally concerned with academic issues but is also on hand if students need to talk about any aspect of their stay in ULearn / Dublin. 

Work

ULearn offers a free service here in the school which assists students in their search for work. We help with the correction and modification of their curriculum vitae and advise them as to the best way to look for work in whatever area they are interested in, be it casual work or more career focused. There are also occasional workshops on demand which help with interview techniques. The D.O.S. or other members of the academic team can help students with that engagement. Its a great way for students to become familiar with the type of questions asked at an interview.

Social

ULearn organises social events most nights of the week so all the students from every level can meet and get to know each other. The social events are visible on the Social Calendar page on the site. They are deliberately varied so as to allow students visit places of interest in Dublin, play sports and go on excursions to Galway, Belfast, Cork and other areas of Ireland. If you can come these events help you improve your English and you will never be bored while doing it!

Sport

Weekly events like 5-a-side football, Tag Rugby (in summer), ULearn's running club and cycling trips to the Dublin mountains. There is also a modern gymnasium very close to the school for students to join if they wish.

Accommodation Support 

Apart from the Homestay, Apartments or Residence options offered by ULearn, we also help students search for long term accommodation once they are here in Dublin. Using websites like Daft.ie students can contact support staff for advice on the areas of Dublin including issues like safety and price etc. ULearn also has contact with real estate and letting agents in Dublin which on occasion contact the school with good offers for apartment rentals for suitable for students.

Wellbeing 

Studying and living abroad is a very rewarding experience. It allows students to meet new people and know more about themselves while learning about a foreign culture and language. At the same time it can be challenging. ULearn believes that it is vital that students feel supported in their emotional wellbeing as well as the essentials like accommodation and language ability. It is for this reason that ULearn provides a service to students who wish to discuss such issues. An appointment can be made through the student liaison officer and all such queries will be dealt with in confidence and with the highest sensitivity. ULearn staff are very experienced in such matters and it is important that students know and feel supported in all aspects of their life in Dublin :)
