About Learn Irish Online

Learn Irish Online was founded by Galway teacher and podcaster Liam Ó Duibhiolla to help people learn Irish through real, everyday use.

After learning Spanish and Italian, I saw first-hand that languages are learned by speaking from day one, listening regularly and engaging with the real language.

Too often, Irish is taught through token phrases and memorisation without giving learners the chance to actually speak or understand it.

Learn Irish Online takes a different approach.

Through our online Irish courses, the Gaeilge Weekly podcast and LIO Membership, learners at different levels can build their listening, speaking and comprehension skills through real Gaeilge.

Whether you're starting from scratch, returning to Irish after school or looking to take your Gaeilge to the next level, the goal is simple: to help you make Irish a language you actually use everyday, without the stress or jargon you may have experienced before.

No pointless memorisation. No waiting until you feel “ready.” Just real Irish you can understand, speak and use.
