English Language Classes
Learners are divided into mentors and mentees.The more advanced English language learner offers support and help to the weaker learner.In English classes I am a mentor to other students during class.

English Conversation Classes
Fáilte Isteach is a community project that involves volunteers welcoming migrants to their community through conversational English classes.I attend conversation classes for two hours per week in the community centre, Portlaoise.I am a mentee in these classes and hope to train as a mentor in the future.
