The Centre for Irish Language receives enquiries on a daily basis about the availability of TEG-based Irish language courses throughout Ireland and abroad and we aim to keep our database of course providers as precise and up-to-date as possible.
If you or your organization provide Irish courses that are based on the TEG syllabuses, please email the following information to teanga@nuim.ie:
- Name of teacher/organization
- Address
- Phone number
- Email address
- Website details
Those details will be added to our list of course providers on the TEG website and learners in your area will be able to access your contact details directly.
