About Me
italki teacher since Jul 6, 2017
I was born and raised in rural Ireland in the last century, in one of the few counties (Mayo) where, alongside native English, native Gaelic in its purest form was and is still spoken. In my twenties I decided to live abroad and learn some foreign languages, including coming here to the Canaries to learn their Whistled Speech, what you and many call Silbo Gomero, and I was soon a competent whistler of speech.

I really enjoyed the lesson with Pádraig. It was very interesting and engaging, and I felt comfortable doing the exercises. He is a friendly and patient teacher who made the lesson enjoyable and useful. I appreciated his encouraging approach and the way he corrected me without making me feel pressured. Happy to book another lesson, when possible!

Ceacht álainn inniú! Bhí comhrá beag maith againn agus tar éis sin rinneamar scéal agus ceisteanna a cleachtadh. Bíonn níos muiníne agam le gach rang

Truly enjoyed the class. Appreciate more now the immersive approach to learning a new language. Patch made it both instructive and fun. Only wish I could learn in person; video certainly very effective however. Look forward to next classes!
