    Would you send her to the Gaeltacht? There might still be places in some colleges. Or she could do a day course, where they take a bus out to a college in the morning and back again in the evening.

    I couldn't recommend the Gaeltacht highly enough. My children got such a kick out of being out there that each of them insisted on going for 3 summers. Not only did they become fluent in Irish but became very keen to learn it. Two of them went on to get the Dioploma sa Gaeilge in University as an extra to their degrees, purely on the love for it they gained in Irish college. I'm very proud of them!
