Central Square Library Central Square, NY 13036(315) 247-6106deirdremccarthy1961@gmail.comMy class is bi weekly. I am available to teach conversational Irish. If you want to learn a song in Irish or recite a poem.
I love my native language. My father used to speak to me in Irish growing up, especially around the dinner table. He sent my sister and I off to An Cheathru Rua Gaeltacht when I was a teen and I got to enjoy the language further. I left Ireland in 1986 to live in the states with my American husband and I found I needed to keep my Irish spirit alive, so I got involved in everything Irish I could lay my hands on.
Class starts up in September 2024.
