Immersion-based learning for total beginners.
During this 90-minute workshop, you will have the opportunity to be completely immersed in the language. The teaching methodology used is called Gàidhlig aig Baile (Gaelic in the Community), which supports language immersion through everyday activities and repetition. Activities may include playing cards, match game, charades, and 20 questions. The aim of this session is to give participants a taste for Gaelic, demonstrate how immersion-based learning works, and encourage future Gaelic learning. Registration required, contact: Margie Beaton (902) 295 3411 ext.222 margie@gaeliccollege.edu
