You'd be qualified as a secondary teacher only, and only in one subject, Irish. You'd ideally study more than just Irish as part of your degree, taking other subjects like English/Maths etc., to give you better employment prospects. The list of undergrad degrees you can take leading to being a secondary teacher can be found here .
