Eoin O Conchuir, the founder of Bitesize, contacted me and asked if i would be prepared to make myself available to do this, and because Bitezize is an Irish language teaching site, which he set up to help encourage people anywhere and everywhere, to learn and help to preserve our native tongue, I was only delighted to help.
As a native Irish speaker myself, I can only wish them all the success in the world.
