If you choose the wrong course, don’t worry—we can transfer you to a more suitable option at no extra cost!

MAIN COURSES

Go for the Bunchúrsa if ANY of these match where you are:

  • I have no Irish at all

  • I have very little Irish, only a few words here and there

  • I can only string together a few basic sentences

Dive into the Level Up Course if ANY of these sound like you:

  • I can hold basic conversations about familiar topics, but struggle when the conversation develops.

  • I understand some of the language, and can hold some conversations

  • I feel confident talking and listening to someone in Irish, but I still make mistakes and want to polish my skills

COMPREHENSION COURSES

Sign up for the Cúrsa Tuisceana if ANY of these apply to you:

  • I already feel confident with all the basics of the language and want to improve my comprehension

  • I want to learn more about all three major dialects

  • I'm already conversational, but struggle to understand other speakers

  • I understand other learners well, but I find it difficult to follow native speakers

Opt for Gaeilge na Mumhan: The Big Guide if ANY of these sound familiar:

  • I have some Irish, but want to focus more on the Munster dialect

  • I did the Cúrsa Tuisceana, but now want a deeper dive on Gaeilge na Mumhan

  • I'm comfortable understanding other dialects and/or standard Irish, but I struggle with speakers from Cork and Kerry

SPECIALIST RESOURCES

Finally, get the Cheat Sheets if you relate to ANY of these:

  • I don't need a full course, but rather I want companion materials for the tougher concepts of the language

  • I struggle with specific topics such as An Modh Coinníollach, An Saorbhriathar, An Tuiseal Ginideach
