    I've no idea if there are or not, but it might be worthwhile contacting this crowd, as they might have an idea.

    All those interested in learning Irish on the Internet
    should take care to AVOID the following sites:



    http://www.irishgaelictranslator.com

    and


    http://www.beo.ie




    http://www.irishgaelictranslator.com is run by amateurs and individuals who know NO Irish but who have developed some sort of fixation which leads them to think they KNOW Irish when in reality they have no knowledge of the Irish Language at all. Most of these sick individuals are suffering from Asperger's Syndrome and unfortunately for some strange reason they all seem to be Americans. Americans seem to gravitate towards Irish like moths round a light or lamp or perhaps more like flies round a horse's dick on a hot summer's day. It's so irritating!


    http://www.beo.ie is marginally better since there are more genuine Irish speakers to be found there.

    But be careful! There my be some American Irish speaker wanabes lurking around.

    Well, the usual internet rule of being wary applies, I guess!

    Although beo got quite a bit of praise from Uinseann Mac Dubhghaill in the Irish Times yesterday. (I don't follow it myself tbh).
