Cad é ‘Cúrsa Comhrá’?

What is ‘Conversation Course’?

An 8 week online Irish course on Zoom where the main emphasis is on conversation.
You are not expected to already be conversational for cúrsa comhrá 1 and you are not expected to be perfect for the following levels.
The courses aim to give you the eolas, cleachtadh agus muinín - knowledge, practice and confidence you need to become conversational. Through reading sample dialogues and the accompanying notes that explain any vocabulary and grammar that come up, you will feel ready and eager to participate in the activities and many opportunities to practice :) If conversation is your goal, this course is for you!
Beatha teanga í a labhairt - the life of a language is to speak it 💚

Past Cúrsa Comhrá Sessions

See what cúrsa comhrá alumni had to say..

  • The Cúrsa Comhrá was an excellent introduction to speaking Irish for beginners. It covered useful , everyday conversation topics, using simple scripts as a framework for each class. It included relevant vocabulary, helpful explanations on grammar and guidance on pronunciation. Most importantly, it provided the opportunity to practise speaking Irish with others of a similar level, in a friendly and relaxed way, taking away the nervousness and introducing some confidence. I would highly recommend it.

  • I couldn't recommend the course highly enough. Somehow you both managed to get me speaking Gaeilge! I loved the format, the notes, the friendly approach and had great fun. The course gave me the confidence to finally speak Irish. What a breakthrough!

  • Iontach!! When I started the cúrsa with Molly, I had literally just a couple of words and couldn't produce a sentence. At the end of the six weeks, I already had the confidence to express myself in a range of topics using basic structures. As a professor of Linguistics and a language teacher myself, I was truly impressed at the excellence permeating the whole course: from the material to the way the classes were conducted -- including the individual attention and the friendly atmosphere, which quickly made me feel like I was among old friends. Highly recommended!

  • Is múinteoirí ceart iad Molly agus Briana. Bhí na ceachtanna deas agus soiléir. Bhain mé sult as mo chuid ama sa chúrsa cómhra seo. Bhí sé leagtha amach go maith. D'fhoghlaim mé go leor stór focal agus bhuail mé le daoine iontacha. Ní dhéanfaidh mé dearmad ar an gcúrsa le fada an lá. Go raibh míle maith agaibh as gach rud. Tá mé ag súil go mór leis an gcursa seo chugainn libh!
