Why families return year after year

A traditional Irish course built around what students actually need.

We are a small organisation that does one thing — teach Irish well, in person, in the summer. Below is what that means in practice.

Run by qualified Irish teachers

Every course is led and staffed by experienced second-level Irish teachers — not students. Most of our team work in Irish-medium schools during the academic year.

Real focus on exam grades

Junior Cert and Leaving Cert courses are designed around the current marking schemes, oral exam structure, and prescribed material. Students leave with notes they can use in September.

Stays close to home

Day-only courses across eight Leinster venues. Drop-off in the morning, pick-up in the afternoon. No accommodation costs, no overnight travel.

Small group teaching

Class sizes are kept low so every student gets practice speaking and asking questions. Students are grouped by school year, not just by age.

Cultural and active afternoons

Mornings focus on grammar, oral, and exam technique. Afternoons cover ceol, drámaíocht, sport, and quizzes — entirely through Irish.

Transparent pricing and deposits

A €140 booking deposit secures the place. The balance is due closer to the course. Cancellation policy is clear and published on every booking page.

Our venues

Eight Leinster schools. Courses run as day programmes — students go home each evening.
