Yea, there are a few. Think GaelTaca in Cork and Gael Linn in Dublin do them. But really, all they can do in a weekend is give you more notes. You could buy an Irish oral book for €10 and have a load of notes. What you need is to get into a ciorcal comhrá or pay someone to talk to you for an hour. Have you any friend or relative who could talk to you as Gaeilge once a week? You could bribe them with pizza or something.

Have you looked at the Institute of Education? The grinds may be a bit pricey but I can guarantee they will help hugely. I went there for two years full-time.
