Irish Gaelic Made Easy – Start Speaking Today! Sé do bheatha! My name is Seosamh, and I’m an Irish language teacher from Ulster. I attended Irish-language immersion education from the age of 3. I’m also a TV presenter on TG4 and Cúla4, two leading Irish-language TV stations, as well as an actor and filmmaker creating films in Irish. In addition to my media work, I’ve taught Irish professionally in NYC, collaborating with renowned institutions including the Irish Arts Center in Manhattan and the New York Irish Center in Queens, as well as offering private lessons. I’m a passionate and dynamic instructor, dedicated to teaching Irish language and culture in a fun, modern way, incorporating media, music and even memes. My love for the Irish language drives my teaching, and I’m a regular contributor to Irish-language media. My strength as a teacher lies in creating engaging and fun lessons, with plenty of feedback and support. I provide a variety of resources, including videos, memes, music, writing tasks and exercises, to enhance your learning experience. Each class is tailored to your individual needs and goals, ensuring your language journey is enjoyable and effective. Afterwards, I’ll email you everything we talked about and learned in class. **PLEASE NOTE:** If rescheduling/cancelling a lesson, please give prior notice—even on the day of the lesson. I understand that life happens, and that same understanding must be returned to me. By scheduling a lesson, you agree to this policy. Let’s work together! :)

An excellent teacher that comes well prepared but also can be flexible depending on needs of the student. Very knowledgeable on the language and particularly strong on grammar. I have progressed so much and would highly reccommend.

I have been taking lessons with Seosamh on a weekly basis for the past 6 months. Without a doubt, I have grown so much in my language journey as a direct result of his instruction and direction. Seosamh does an excellent job of creating a curriculum that is specific to my own skills and interests. He does this by assigning not only translation work, but also sending; movies, tv shows, videos, music, articles, and general resources to provide real world application of skills being learned. The classes themselves are conversation driven. I am learning much more than just what words mean, but how to speak and have a conversation in the language. A pretty major part of language learning is being able to communicate, and Seosamh definitely makes that the priority it should be. Whether you are a pure beginner learning your 1st words, have tried Duolingo (been there), or need to brush up, I highly recommend booking lessons with Seosamh.

Seosamh is an amazing and delightfully present teacher. They share their own curiosities, provide friendly feedback, and create a lovely, comforting environment in which to learn. I love the way their lessons tie in with a bit of Irish history and offer a grounded way to begin learning the language. Can't wait for my next lesson!

Been taking lessons with Joseph for several months and I’ve made amazing progress. His lessons are always well thought out, interesting and at a level that encourages me to improve. If you put the work in and follow his instructions you’ll be well on your way to fluency.

I thoroughly enjoyed the lesson. Seosamh was exceptionally patient in helping me refine my pronunciation, providing clear, insightful, and well-structured guidance throughout. His supportive teaching style made the lesson both enjoyable and highly effective, and I found the tuition incredibly helpful in building my confidence in speaking Irish.
