Have you seen and listened to the BBC North Ireland “Slan” series on learning Irish Gaelic?

Of course, we American users are so very used to everything they do being just dotcom.

If at first you don’t succeed, try an effective search engine.

...you should try to find classes—learning on your own can be frustrating sometimes. If you have trouble finding a class in your area, contact eolas@gaeilge.org, as Cionaodh may be able to find one for you.

I took a class while I was in Ireland for the year and it was a lot of fun. It’s kind of hard to find people to speak to, but fun nonetheless. I’m not fluent but I can have a conversation. Defnitely worth doing!! = )
