Fáilte Isteach, National Launch

Fáilte Isteach

Fáilte Isteach provides free conversational English classes for new migrants.

The classes are taught by voluntary tutors from the local community.

Materials and resources are based on real life situations and scenarios and are aimed at helping new migrants to integrate into Irish society and community life.

New migrants attend Fáilte Isteach classes for a variety of reasons:

• To improve their English comprehension, and their speaking and writing skills.
• To access assistance with form filling, writing CVs and drafting letters.
• To increase their opportunities to gain employment.
• To make day to day tasks, such as shopping, banking, general interacting with the community, less stressful.
• To meet new people and make new friends within the project itself, and in the wider community.
