Trouble Learning Irish

Seloth

Well a few years ago I hated Irish but in the last 2 years I really do want to learn Irish,I want to keep up or culture ect but there's a Problem,From 3rd class to 2nd year I've had bad Irish teachers.

This year now which unfortunatly is J.C. I have a good Irish Teacher but Im like the Worst at Irish in my class.This will sound weird but every now and then I will say a sentence of Irish when at home which to me would sound like gibberish but it would make sense,So basicaly I could have a conversation in Irish but not have a clue what Im saying but Im a bit skeptic of my self sometimes like that.

So any one have any tips? or is there a Learn Irish In your Sleep CD.

Just take one step at a time, I guess. Like learn a few new words or phrases or read up on some aspect of the grammer you didn't understand before.

If you weren't planning to already, you should go to the Gaeltacht in the Summer. Not much use to you now I know but it will stand to you for the leaving cert, it will almost certainly improve your confidence and you'll have a great time too.

For now, like simu said, work on small things. They'll all add up by the time the exam comes around.

Try buying ''Revise wise'' or ''shortcuts to success'', it should give you some help

I went to Irish College Before and I only learned Sha,Feic air sinn and reminded of Pog ma hòne.

As for the Revise wise and shortcut to succes I dont think they are ment to be much help,I'll give them a shot though
