"I found LetsLearnIrish.com just eight weeks before my trip to Ireland. I wish I had started learning earlier! In a few short sessions, I've come to understand basic pronunciation and sentence structure. The online sessions are informative, rich with background and history, and useful conversation threads. I also appreciated our instructor's "gentle corrections" on inflection and encouragement to think of speaking Irish as singing a song. That made it click for me!

The thought of speaking Irish was very intimidating to me. I always feel very self-conscious about my language skills, but my teacher was great and reminded us that we are here to learn and that is normal not to have any prior knowledge and to make mistakes. My teacher created a pleasant learning environment in which I felt more and more confident to speak Irish and make mistakes.

Discovering Let’s Learn Irish was timely given my frustration with a perceived lack of progress and no interaction. The Let’s Learn Irish courses and teachers have introduced me to a whole new level of learning in terms of grammar and facilitating practical conservation in a supportive manner. It is also good to know there are other adults interested in learning Irish and willing to engage others in this pursuit.

Growing up in Vancouver, I have learned about the power of language and cultural reclamation as a tool of decolonization from local indigenous artists, academics, and friends. This past year, as I approach my 30th birthday, I have been itching for a deeper connection to Irish culture, which led me to impulsively sign up for my first Irish class on LetsLearnIrish.com.

While the past seven weeks in A0 level with Lets Learn Irish have been fantastic, it has also been extremely illuminating when it came to revealing more about myself. I’ve never been this dedicated to learning a language before. As hard as I try, I cannot ever remember feeling this hungry for a language that isn’t my own. But in a sense Irish does feel like mine. Irish, strangely, feels like home.

Go tobann, 2020 – suddenly, the pandemic strikes! This was my time. I took my advantage with every online resource I could find. Luckily, one was the online community, Let’s Learn Irish. I signed up and I haven’t looked back. This process changed my life. The more of the language I gathered, the more ancestral tools to hold in my belt, the more I craved.

It was a wonderful experience. The instructor was patient and generous with his explanations. I had so much fun learning Irish that I wanted to spend eight hours a day studying it formally in class. (If I ever find myself in a position to be in an Irish class that long, I would do it in a heartbeat.) The good people at Let’s Learn Irish made the whole learning experience something special – a real dream come true!

Our teacher did great work by combining the grammar and conversation. As a language learner, and as a language teacher, I know how important it is to be able to talk right from the beginning. In class each week, my Irish teacher read the words and sentences again and again. That helped me to improve my reading skills.

When I found Let’s Learn Irish, I immediately signed up for the free monthly workshop – something no other online Irish group I had looked at had offered. The effects on my Irish skills were instantaneous and almost miraculous. Very soon I was speaking confidently with other learners at my level and learning at a rapid pace.

Although only new to learning Irish, Melody Pettus says that she is 100% in love with the pursuit! She had a great experience with her first Let’s Learn Irish A0 Introductory course, noting: “(The teacher) did a fantastic job bringing forward not just the art of speaking Irish, but the background and context that goes into its expressiveness.”

I've never had so much fun in class! I appreciate learning the language but also about Irish history and culture. The more that I learn, the more I realize how incredibly important and urgent this work is, and learning and speaking Gaeilge is becoming more and more meaningful to me. I feel blessed to be part of what feels like a revival and hopefully growth of the language.

Although I made a few abortive attempts at learning with Rosetta Stone, Duolingo, and Mango Languages, the language didn’t really start taking hold in me until I found Let’s Learn Irish’s online classes. The sense of community helps, too – knowing that I’m one small part of a bigger whole, all moving in the same direction for our own, unique reasons.

Let’s Learn Irish has been a blessing in my life. I started with a one-day intensive class. I was hooked! I’ve been taking classes consistently now for a year and a half, and I’m ever so grateful. I’m particularly excited about my new course, as I have a son now, and I’m bound and determined that he’ll have Irish too, so I can give back to the language all that it has given me.

The rapid progress that you make at Let’s Learn Irish comes from the focus on conversation and making sentences right away, as well as the incredible resources available – varied classes and multiple conversation (Comhrá) sessions to drop in on. This online community is a a Virtual Gaeltacht!

I found the A0 course structure very useful and supportive, and it helped me gain an understanding of constructing sentences coherently and consistently. I opted for the "VideoOnly" option due to my lack of confidence...and I did find that having the video resource helped me hone in on the areas I needed to build on. Keep up the fantastic work!

Let's Learn Irish has been the Irish course I’ve really needed! The munteoirí are fantastic and knowledgeable. The students are supportive of each other.

I have some Irish heritage in my background, but it's the language itself, the challenge, the fun way words get put together that keep me here. I love the teachers at Let's Learn Irish and the class curriculum and all the extras that come with belonging to this community. This is such a wonderful family of Irish learners. I recommend it to everyone who asks where I take classes.

I take part in the Comhrá sessions each week. Let's Learn Irish allows you to learn the language in a very casual environment. As you improve your confidence grows and you pick up on the subtleties of the Irish culture that non speakers miss. Starting to learn Irish was a great choice for me.

While doing geneology research, I realized that my grandfather had spoken both Irish and English. A sudden desire to learn Irish took hold! My daughter sweetly said, “If you do it, I’ll do it with you!” We’ve been at it for 2 years now. It’s so much fun, and I wish we’d started earlier! Go raibh maith agat, a Let’s Learn Irish!
