Oideas Gael has been teaching the Irish language to adult learners since 1984. During this period thousands of learners, from Ireland and all around the world, have attended our classes and have been taught by our excellent panel of teachers drawn from all over Ireland. The Oideas Gael ‘formula’ for learning Irish utilises the communicative method of learning, where emphasis is placed on using the spoken language in a relaxed but structured environment.

The Enjoy Irish foundation course contains the fundamentals required for achieving a good basis in Irish. The role-play format, with its easy-to-understand explanations, is an enjoyable and informal way to kick off your Irish language learning. A sound foundation is essential to getting off to a good start in most projects in life and this is the ingredient supplied by our course. It will enable you to set out on a journey of discovery and enjoy the magical world of the Irish language.

Spoken Irish too fast for a beginner / Die konversationen sind zu schnell gesprochen

It s a nice course, it is just unfortunate, as the Irish pronounciation is difficult anyway, the beginner would like to be able to listen to the conversations being spoken slowly. All is spoken quite speedily, so you can barely make out the sound of each word, never mind learning it.

Irish through and through

What I appreciate about this little series of lessons is that doesnt feel one bit like a cookie-cutter program designed to teach a bunch of languages the same way. The approach is very simple, just a series of short (three to fifteen seconds long) dialogues grouped thematically and spoken at a conversational pace. You can show or hide the English translation. What this would NOT be good for is a stand-alone course for learning Irish. I am a beginner who has only studied Irish by completing the first four lessons in a book-plus-CD, and for me the Enjoy Irish app has been super helpful to reinforce my limited knowledge and give me a better idea of the cadence and pace of ordinary speech. Well done!
