The Irish course for LCA is done very well.  It is like starting again in the Irish course from first year.  It  teaches  you the basic topics in Irish to talk about. There are alot of key assignments in the Irish course, like filling in a passport form in Irish, finding out about your name and address and a bit about what they mean.  We also went on a trip to an Irish radio station called "Radio na Life".  while we were there we had a look around the station and then asked one of the workers a few questions in Irish about the radio station and she answered them in Irish.  The next day in school we typed up a report on the radio station.  We also learned a bit of Scotts Gaelic.  We went on the internet a found out a bit about Scotland and its ways.  I thought it was a good laugh learning Irish again because the teacher we had gave me a better understanding of the language and it was easyier to learn.
