Cultural discussions and presentations
What will I achieve? By the end of this course you should be able to...
Express opinions and arguments with greater fluency and accuracy
Understand and use more complex grammatical forms
Engage in extended conversations on a range of topics
Interpret and discuss authentic Irish texts and media
Demonstrate increased confidence in spoken Irish
What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?
his course is suitable for learners who have completed Irish 3 Upper: Module 2 or have studied Irish for approximately 4–5 years.
Students at this level are working towards CEFR B2.
Choose a level 3 upper course if you can:

understand specific details and general information from routine telephone calls,
follow routine instructions (e.g., for a game, recipe, using equipment or installing computer software),
understand articles from the press or other authentic sources and produce a written summary covering the main points.
How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?
Our courses are characterised by spoken interaction and communication. Typical activities include pair work, group work, role plays and games. A range of resources will be used to support your learning including presentations, hand-outs, and audio-visual material. Homework is highly recommended to consolidate learning.
Are there any other costs? Is there anything I need to bring?
We will be using the book Gaeilge Gan Stró (Lower Intermediate Level) and tutor's own material. Resources will be shared via Google Classroom.
