Conor

Today was my first lesson/ conversation practice with Conor, who is new on iTalki. I was extremely pleased and impressed, and I hope to take many more lessons and do a lot more conversation practice with him. He is a native Irish speaker from Conemara, but nevertheless he spoke clearly and at a pace that I could easily understand. He was very patient with my American accented Irish, and his comments gave me confidence. He is a very kind person and also an interesting person to converse with. I felt very comfortable speaking Irish with him, and I'm certain that continuing to study and practice with him will improve my Irish greatly. I highly recommend him!

Great conversation practice with Conor, as always. I really enjoy practicing my Irish with him, and these conversations definitely help me to improve my ability to speak Irish. I highly recommend him.

Conor is a delight to work with. He is encouraging, friendly, and very knowledgeable.

I'm not great with classrooms nor with structured learning so I appreciated Conor's relaxed conversational approach . Within 3 minutes we were exchanging greetings. Before beginning the lesson I had two hopes: to speak a dialect ( as opposed to standard Irish) in this case, Connemara, and to find a way of using it in my music and writing; my Father and Uncles having played in the Irish pubs in Kilburn and Brixton in the 50's. It's not easy to begin with, but I pushed myself after the lesson and found that, with a little effort, the words flowed. Apart from talking to family in Ireland, I have children and grandchildren here in Notting hill, and I will pass this onto them . Slainte!

I have done conversation practice in Irish with Conor several times now. He is kind and patient and a good conversationalist. I always enjoy the classes immensely. I highly recommend him.

Is múinteoir iontach é conor. Ná bí buartha faoi do leibhéal gaeilge atá agat, tá sé an-chabrach ar fad. Grma arís!
