Gaelchultúr is hiring teachers and correctors

We run courses on a continuous basis and they cater for learners at all levels of competency, from total beginners to fluent speakers of Irish. We have a whole range of course delivery models, e.g. intensive day courses, 20 week courses, night classes and weekend classes. Most of the teaching now takes place via live online classes but we also provide courses in the classroom on a regular basis.

Gaelchultúr has a panel of part-time teachers and correctors and we are always seeking to add to that panel. If you’re interested in teaching/correction work with us, please send your CV to poist@gaelchultur.com. If work becomes available that would suit you, we will contact you in order to arrange an interview.

At present (Summer 2026), we are particularly interested in receiving CVs from teachers:

Interested in on-site teaching in Dublin.

Based in North America.

With expertise and an interest in teaching accuracy/grammar courses.

When we’re recruiting teachers and correctors, we look for people who have:

a high standard of both spoken and written Irish.

an Irish language qualification and/or a formal teaching qualification.

experience in teaching Irish (especially to adults).

excellent interpersonal skills, so that they can put learners at ease and motivate them.

Here are some of the advantages of teaching with Gaelchultúr:

We provide lesson plans and teaching resources for each class so the teacher does not have to develop that material.

The instructions contained in the lesson plans are so comprehensive that they give new teachers an opportunity to learn high-level teaching skills inside a short period of time, which contributes greatly to their professional development.

A modern, learner-centred teaching approach is used; this ensures that learners have plenty of opportunities to participate in the classes, which contributes greatly to the atmosphere in the classroom.

We have developed comprehensive syllabuses, ensuring that there is continuity from class to class and from course to course.

We do the photocopying, we prepare the materials for games, etc. before each class so that the teacher does not need to do that work.

Online support material is usually provided for learners so that they can revise what they’ve covered in the classroom and prepare for the next class. This reduces the pressure on the teacher in the classroom and ensures that learners make better progress during a course.

Teachers are given an opportunity to correct homework and earn extra money. This work is not compulsory nor is it necessary to teach with us in order to correct with us but many teachers find it attractive because of the flexibility involved and the hourly rate paid for the work.
