Learn Scottish Gaelic in Twelve Weeks

Deciding on a Gaelic Medium Education (GME) for my son is also a commitment for me too. I'm committed to learning Gàidhlig to ensure I can fully support my son in his education. I've been learning a lot about the language through the Learn Gaelic website. There are lots of inspiring resources online. I've also made good use of the nursery vocabulary handouts. I sit with my son to read books online using the audio available on the Gaelic4Parents website. I expose us both to Gàidhlig at home with music, stories, and BBC Alba. In the car we occasionally listen to the Gàidhlig radio station.

I've done some studying of the grammar and how Gàidhlig is translated but I've decided to take a more structured approach and follow the Learn Scottish Gaelic in Twelve Weeks work book with the accompanying CDs. I started this on the 4th January so the twelve weeks is up on the 29th March. 

Once I've completed this course I'm going to enrol for a class or a distance learning course. I'm also going to look into the Saturday club that the Glasgow Gàidhlig school offer. 

I was going to make a separate blog to share how I get on but I decided do I made this to share my experience with GME and learning myself is also a big part of that.
