IRISH CONVERSATION CLASS
Course Description:
Is féidir linn! (Barak Obama, College Greene 2011)
Want to learn to speak better Irish?
Want to be able to help students with Irish homework?
If you answer “yes” to one or both of these questions, then this could be the class
for you!
The aim of the class is to get you speaking Irish confidently, and to the best of your ability.
The class will provide a supportive setting for you to practice and improve your Irish,
whatever your current level, in the company of like-minded learners and with the help of an
experienced tutor.
The emphasis will be on listening to, and speaking Irish. Basic points of grammar will be
explained on a need-to-know basis as they arise in class. We will also look at the many helpful
resources that now exist on line for learners of Irish.
The class will be of particular benefit also to parents/guardians in helping students with Irish
homework. With that in mind, we’ll take time to examine the current Irish textbook in use
and look at typical homework assignments.
Remember, over 300,000 people in Ireland speak Irish. If you have a desire to
improve your Irish there is no reason at all why you cannot achieve your
ambition.
As Barak Obama said as Gaeilge, in College Green, Dublin in 2011: Is féidir linn!
(We can do it). So can you, of course.
