If you have already completed this course once, and would like to take your next steps with the language, consider Irish Language 1+.
Take your first steps in learning one of Europe's most fascinating and expressive languages. These classes, specially prepared for online learning, will guide you through the basics of the language, offering you structured lessons with a practical emphasis on the spoken language. Participants will be provided with learning materials and audio files in advance of each class. You will have plenty of opportunities to practice what you learn in a relaxed and enjoyable environment.
The course is aimed at those who have not studied Irish before or those who may have been learning Irish on their own without many opportunities for face-to-face interaction with native speakers. If you previously attended some lessons but have fallen out of practice you may also find you benefit from revisiting and reinforcing the fundamentals.
Timetable
Participants will attend either of our 1-day intensive courses on Saturday, February 7th or Saturday, February 21st, 2026. Morning and evening options are offered so the courses are accessible to people living in Ireland and around the world.
