Language Classes


Get your Gaeilge going with the Irish Center!

Beginning Irish
Basic Irish aims to guide students through a basic understanding of the history of the Irish language and introduce structure and grammar concepts through fun, practical applications of new words. Students will leave being able to hold simple conversations.

This course is geared at brand-new speakers of the Irish language.

Intermediate Grammar
Grammar is for people with basic Irish or who have been through an introduction course or similar. Improve your grammar, structure, and understanding in this course. Each class will begin with a short comhrá/conversation session, followed by structured learning. We will be following along with Basic Irish: A Grammar and Workbook by Nancy Stenson, starting with spelling and punctuation.

Erin Hartnett

LANGUAGE INSTRUCTOR

Erin is thrilled to be joining the team at the Irish Center after years of being part of the KC Irish community. Erin studied theatrical design and Spanish at K-State. Drama work actually led to a dabbling in Irish as a hobby. In 2020, with theatres closed, Erin took advantage of the time and began studying Irish in earnest. Since then, Gaeilge has become a true love and passion. Erin is excited to share the grá with the community.
