TEG for Hibernia Teaching Course

To get into the Hibernia course, all students must apply and then do an interview in English, as well as in Irish. Even if you have your H4 or higher grade in Irish at Leaving Cert, you will still have to do the Irish language part of the interview with Hibernia.

Some students might pass the English part of the interview but fail on the Irish part. You can be exempt from doing the Irish language part of the interview, if you can show that you have passed the oral exam in TEG at level B1. 

TEG for students

What my TEG students are saying

"After 27 years away from studying Irish, I was hesitant in returning to learn the language. But thanks to the incredible support and teaching of Bríd, I was able to reach the level of fluency and confidence required to pass the Irish oral exam for Hibernia College.

Bríd’s passion for the Irish language is inspiring. She has a remarkable understanding of grammar and a natural talent for explaining things in a way that’s clear, patient, and encouraging. No matter how basic or complex my questions were, Bríd was always available to help, and her willingness to go above and beyond made all the difference. I felt supported and encouraged every step of the way thanks to her ability to motivate and inspire.

With her expert guidance, I rediscovered my love of the Irish language. I grew in confidence as a learner and successfully passed the oral interview. I am so grateful for everything that Bríd has done and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to learn the language or return to studying Irish."

Caroline - Hibernia interview preparation

"I have been a student of Bríd's for a number of years, and I can't recommend her highly enough. The love she has for the Irish Language is truly infectious, and she is just brilliant at giving you practical tips on pronunciation or how to remember particular words  as Gaeilge...in a really positive way!

Re-learning Irish again as an adult can be challenging but with Bríd on your side...you will do it!! And more than that, more importantly - enjoy it!!"
