Sorcha

Sorcha is a friendly , knowledgeable and encouraging teacher. As an adult learner , one of my biggest issues is with actually speaking the Irish that I do have . Sorcha politely prompts me to go back to Gaeilge when I slip back into using English. When I make mistakes , Sorcha will gently inform me of the correct structure that I should have used , without making me feel like a fool. It’s a skill that not all teachers have and along with simple , constructive lesson plans and some homework , makes Sorcha a great choice no matter what level your Irish is at. I’d recommend Sorcha as a teacher and I’m sure she’ll help you with your language journey , on top of that you’ll have met a genuinely nice person , it’s a win win really !

This was another excellent lesson/conversation with Sorcha, who is a very capable teacher and guide to this beautiful language. What I especially like is that our conversations are unplanned and often go off into tangents unexpectedly. I love her curiosity and sense of fun but do notice that she cleverly steers the conversations to get the most from them. I always come away with the clear belief that I have progressed in my learning. Go raibh mile maith agat, a Shorcha!

As always, this lesson was both very comprehensive as well as a lot of fun. Having not had a lesson for a few weeks, due to my commitments, I really appreciated the relaxed pace of the conversation but it also encompassed a wide range of vocabulary. I learned some new words, improved pronunciation and grammar in a nearly effortless way. Foirfe!

Always an absolute pleasure even when, like today, I am less than at my best. Sorcha's style suits me perfectly and she is highly adept in steering the conversation to obtain the best results.

I really enjoyed this lesson - the first after a short break. Sorcha has an easy going style which suits me perfectly and she allows me space to form my thoughts without unnecessary interruption. This is not an easy skill but is very important when teaching any subject and I find it incredibly helpful.

Great Irish conversation practice with Sorcha, as always!!! I highly recommend her!
