“Learn Irish and connect with your roots”
Gaeilge go Deo Irish Language courses and Ranganna Gaeilge follow the syllabus of TEG (Teastas Eorpach na Gaeilge) and the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages).
TEG is an internationally recognized Irish Language Proficiency examination that assesses candidates’ skills in reading, writing, listening, and conversation.
The first TEG examination is TEG A1, for which the recommended number of study/hours learning is 80-100 hours.

Hi, I’m Jacinta
I was born and raised in Ireland and started learning Irish in school at the age of 4. My third and fourth-grade teacher, Sr. Lelia (a native speaker from Co. Kerry) inspired my lifelong love of the language.
I went on to graduate college with a degree in Education and Irish and taught Elementary school including Irish in Ireland before moving to the United States.
I spent 30+ years teaching Elementary and Junior High in Oregon. I’ve been involved with the Irish Language Community in Portland for the last 20+ years, teaching at Marylhurst’s Lá na Gaeilge, Féile Portland and attending Sean Nós NW. I’ve taught private Irish Language classes and currently teach Irish online.
I continue to study Irish and I’ve taken classes through Ireland’s Ranganna.ie and most recently participated in 10 weeks live online class with Gaelchultúr.
Show your love of Irish with these fun Gaeilge go Deo/Irish Forever designs and accessories or give one as a gift to your favorite Gaeilgeoir.
