    Hi everyone I’m a mature student and I had my Hibernia interview last week. Unfortunately I was unsuccessful in Irish part. Can any one suggest any course or grinds on line or otherwise to help me for next February to re- sit Irish part. Totally gutted but would love some advice. Thanks everyone.

    Learning one book off isn't a great ploy. I'd prefer to do some grinds/classes. Listen to Raidio na Gaeltachta and watch TG4. Are you in a position to work as a ceannaire in a Gaeltacht or do an adult course?

    I did thankfully, it worked for me anyway I found it super helpful, I would agree though too that any practice you can get in speaking Irish at all would help, wishing you the very best of luck!

    No, qualified in the 80s, but have a lot of experience in helping people prepare for the Irish and getting accepted.ETA- not for money!!

    Hi there,
    I just completed the the Hibernia interview for the masters in primary school teaching. I was unsuccessful. I got a H4 in Irish this year, however, I think the standard required is a good bit higher than the leaving certificate oral . Would anyone be able to reccomend one of the PME prep course to me or a really good tutor?
    Thanks J

    Hi,I am In same situation, I wasnt successful last Feb at interview and will resit in Feb again. I took the time to get my head around it I went to Oideas Gael in the summer but the lack of being able to practice it here in Swords im back to square one again. I plan to do the intensive course with conradh na Gaeilge in December if they let me cause its more for TEG Oral prep but any prep is helpful. Have ye signed up to any courses?

    Hi,

    Has anyone sat their interview this year yet?

    I done the LC last summer and got a H3. Failed the Irish part of the interview and just done my 2nd interview on Monday, but still no word back!
