À propos de moi
Professeur italki depuis le 6 Jul 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.
Moi en tant que professeur
I've been successfully learning, practising and teaching languages for many years, while keeping abreast of the latest studies on language acquisition (Stephen Krashen, Steve Kauffmann. . .).
Mes leçons et ma méthode d'enseignement
After many years of teacher training (Higher Diploma in Education, in the National University of Ireland, Galway, also TEFL courses in Galway, and language training here in Spain), I also studied & still study all the old and new findings on acquisition of languages, implementing the relevant strategies into my classes, incorporating the concepts of comprehensible input and high motivation at every stage, always focusing on the students' wants and needs.

I definitely felt today like I could try to (badly and stumblingly) communicate . Definitely getting improvements and pleased. Hanging on in there. Tá sé go iontach!

I’ve had 9 lessons with Patchy thus far and combined with my own study and going to a Gaeltacht this weekend I have definitely felt massive improvements with my Irish. He’s really great at ironing things out in regard to pronunciation and I can’t recommend enough.

Today I had another wonderful lesson with Patchy, using drawing to reinforce words and concepts from our first lesson and also to focus on the construction "Tá mé/tú ag iarraidh. . ." = "I/You want. . .". It was challenging and a lot of fun. Patchy not only worked with vocabulary and grammar, and also with articulation and gentle correction of pronunciation. This is incredibly important, as the initial mutation of words changes their grammatical structure, and therefore meaning in a sentence. Perfect lesson, and I'm looking forward to more!

Patchy’s lesson was so much fun - playful but rich in vocabulary and pronunciation practice. He teaches in such a natural, intuitive way that you don’t realize how much you are learning until later. Powerful and very engaging.
