There’s plenty of information in this month’s edition of Nuachtlitir Ghaelchultúir about events run by the company itself and by other organisations. So whether you’re looking for a language course or an Irish language hobby, you’ll find all the best advice here.
Walter Jayawardene has completed three levels of the Certificate in Professional Irish (An Teastas sa Ghaeilge Ghairmiúil, or TGG, in Irish). He did Level 4 in 2018 and Levels 5 and 6 last year. Nuachtlitir Ghaelchultúir spoke with him to find out his thoughts on the course.
During the ‘Deiseanna Duitse’ series, which was broadcast on Facebook Live last year, Gaelchultúr interviewed various people working in sectors in which a high standard of written Irish is required. In this article, we look at some of the advice they had to offer those who are interested in adding to their language skills, particularly in written Irish.
This autumn, Coláiste na hÉireann/Gaelchultúr will again be offering the Postgraduate Diploma in Translation and a scholarship (i.e. the course without the fees) will be awarded to one student on the programme.
For a fourth year in a row, Gaeltacht UCD (formerly Bord na Gaeilge UCD) will be running a summer school, Tionól Gaeilge, in the university. This school, which is being organised in conjunction with Gaelchultúr, will take place on the Belfield campus between Monday, 29 June and Friday, 3 July.
Muiris Ó Fiannachta, who works as Station Manager of Raidió na Life, did the Intensive Preparatory Course in Written Irish (an Dianchúrsa Ullmhúcháin i gCruinneas na Gaeilge) last autumn with Gaelchultúr. We spoke with him recently to find out what it was like to go back to the classroom.
Last autumn more people than ever attended Gaelchultúr’s evening classes in Dublin. Join us this spring and maybe we’ll beat that record!
Gaelchultúr recently launched a series of interviews on Facebook Live to provide information about the company’s evening classes and to focus on the experiences two of our students had whilst learning Irish with us.

Our special offer this month is a copy of ‘QuickGuide Irish Grammar’ for free if you purchase any of Gaelchultúr’s publications for adult learners from siopa.ie.
A brand new ClubLeabhar.com series has begun this month and we’re focusing on six different works as our Book of the Month between now and June. From translations to newly written works, novels to short stories, we have a compelling mixture of books that will undoubtedly spark debate and contemplation about a wide range of fascinating themes and questions.
The prize on offer this month is a €100 voucher that can be spent on Gaelchultúr’s evening classes this spring!
Congratulations to Siobhán Ní Mhurchú, winner of the September newsletter competition!
The ‘Green Book’ contains lots of information that will prove invaluable to those interested in doing work experience in another EU country or those would would like to spend some time working abroad.
