How deeply do you want to connect with the spirit of Ireland?
Whether you want to deepen your connection to your Irish heritage, or you want to explore the literature of one of the oldest writing cultures in Europe, learning the Irish language is an irreplaceable step. If you want to see the world as your Irish forebears did, you’ll need the same linguistic lense they saw the world through. Irish is one of Europe’s oldest written languages and possesses a celebrated body of literature. Whether you’ve always wanted to learn this fascinating minority language or you haven’t considered it until now, now’s your chance to begin your journey with Irish Gaelic.

Meánrang - Intermediate Level Class
Registration for the intermediate level class has been opened for anyone wishing to attend. Please keep in mind that this is for people who have graduated our beginner's level course or have similar experience. This will start on February 23, 2020 at 12:30pm to 2:30pm. You will need to be a member of KIS. Please select you wish to receive news about the Irish Gaelic class to receive any upcoming news about the class. 

Due to the higher intensity of language study at meánleibhéal (intermediate) compared to bunleibhéal (beginner), the meánrang will occur over two years. Year 1 will run from February 2020 to December 2020 and Year 2 will run from February 2021 to December 2021. 

The first semester's tuition will be $85 for the cost of tuition and the book. Subsequent semesters will have a $30 tuition fee.

If you have any questions or would like help, please email the meánrang instructor John McCaul (Seán Óg Mac Cathmhaoil), at john@knoxvilleirish.com.

Bunrang - Beginner's Level Class
The Knoxville Irish Society (Cumann Gaelach Knoxville) - a local nonprofit promoting Irish culture and uniting the local Irish diaspora - is organizing a new beginner Irish language course for 2020-2021. We’ll meet once a week every Monday from 6:00PM to 8:00PM online beginning August 17, 2020. Tuition is $20 per semester, and there will be two semesters for Level 1 (the last day of class will be in May 2021). The first semester will also include a $55 fee for the textbook, which will be yours to keep.

So, the fee for the first semester will be $75, but the second semester will be a total of just $20. All students must be members of the Knoxville Irish Society, which is free of charge. If you’re not already a member, please go to knoxvilleirish.com/join and fill out the form (this form is in addition to the class registration one below).

If you have any questions or would like help, please email the bunrang instructor Wes “Dubhgall” Jones, at wes@knoxvilleirish.com.


We look forward to meeting our 2020-2021 beginner students and kicking off an exciting two semesters of spreading our indigenous language to Knoxville’s Irish diaspora. Go raibh maith agaibh! Thank you!
