What it actually is

Short lessons with audio by native speakers, pronunciation guidance and a members' community for practice. It is aimed squarely at the diaspora learner starting from nothing, and it is honest that Irish has dialects rather than pretending there is one standard spoken form. Free YouTube channel; the course itself is a subscription.
