Learning Irish


Our Irish Courses
Our Beginners’ Course: Learn Irish Now! 1
Conradh na Gaeilge Birmingham is delighted to announce that we will run a second year of our hugely popular and unique Irish language course for beginners: Learn Irish Now! 1
Participants will attend ten three-hour lessons (10 a.m. -1 p.m.) in the centre of Birmingham on the first Saturday of each month, starting in October 2025. The course includes both online and printed resources.
On our online learning platform, you will have access to short tutorials and engaging activities on all course topics. There will also be a printed course script. Optional Zoom meetings will be available between sessions.
The in-person lessons in Birmingham will focus on practising the communicative situations learned during self-study, with an emphasis on speaking.
Participants can immediately use their Irish at our monthly Popup Gaeltacht in Digbeth (held on the second Sunday of each month) and at other social activities for Irish speakers and learners in the West Midlands, organised by Conradh na Gaeilge Birmingham and Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann.
