Course Summary

This course will suit those who already have an Irish language qualification but who nevertheless may wish to improve their level of both grammar and fluency.

The material presented will principally focus on the specific needs of the learners and will attend to matters such as vocabulary and patterns of speech that will enable the participant to engage more fully with the language. Numerous sources will be provided that will enhance one’s appreciation both of the richness of the language and the relevance of accurate grammar.

At the end of the course participants will feel more confident in both their written and oral skills and will have gained a greater awareness of teaching and learning methodologies. In addition, one will be able to identify many modern written and oral sources that will allow the learner to continue with their own independent learning.

Fee
