THE ADVANCED COURSE: CRUINN BEACHT 1, ARDLEIBHÉAL
- COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This course is based, with permission, on the book ÚRCHÚRSA GAEILGE by An tOllamh Dónall P. Ó Baoill and Éamonn Ó Tuathaill, and consists of 30 Grammar Units and 6 Revision Tests. There are thousands (no exaggeration!) of exercises in the form of e-marked quizes to help you practise your Irish and test your knowledge of the grammar. All your scores are added up at the end of your period of study and issued to you in the form of a TEASTAS Certificate.
Since this is an advanced course it is presented in Irish. The contents may be found here: CB1. The list of Aonaid Units and topics in English may be seen here:
