About Gaelscoil Online and me, Jenny :)
I’ve loved Irish since I was young, even though I never got the chance to go to a Gaelscoil. At 18, I moved to the Gaeltacht and started learning directly from native speakers. That led me to study Irish at university, where I completed my degree, postgrad, and master’s — all through Irish — and became a teacher.
I’ve spent years teaching Irish in secondary schools, to adult beginners, and to primary teachers. But it wasn’t until I became a mother that everything shifted.
I wanted my daughter to grow up with Irish at home. I started sharing how we were doing that, and so many parents reached out saying they’d love to do the same, but didn’t feel confident enough.
That’s what led me to create the Speak Irish at Home mini-course, followed by the Irish for Parents Resource Hub.
Now, with my daughter starting in a Gaelscoil, I’m surrounded by parents who care deeply about Irish but feel left behind. My job is to make sure they’re not.
If you want your child to grow up with Irish and you want to feel more confident using it at home or helping with homework, this is for you.
Irish isn’t just for fluent speakers. It’s for families. It’s for you. And it’s never too late to begin.
