About Gaelscoil Online and me, Jenny :)

Hi, I’m Jenny; teacher, mam, and Gaeilgeoir

I’ve loved the Irish language since I was a child, but I didn’t get the chance to go to a Gaelscoil. At 18, I moved to the Gaeltacht and started learning Irish from native speakers. I went on to study Irish in college, did my degree, postgrad, and master’s through Irish, and became a teacher.

Over the years, I’ve taught Irish in secondary schools, to adult beginners, and to primary teachers. But it wasn’t until I had my daughter that everything changed. I knew I wanted her to grow up with Irish at home, and I started sharing how we were doing that.

So many parents reached out to say they’d love to do the same, but just didn’t feel confident enough. That’s why I created the Speak Irish at Home mini-course — and later, the Irish for Parents Resource Hub.

Now, my daughter is going to be attending a Gaelscoil, and 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’d like to feel more confident using it at home or helping with homework, you’re in the right place. Everything I create is designed to make it as simple and practical as possible.

Irish isn’t just for fluent speakers. It’s for families. It’s for you, and everyone deserves that second chance.
