Every month we send out a free e-newsletter, The GaelMinn Gazette. Each issue has tips on studying the language, being more effective and efficient at home and in the classroom, useful for students anywhere, anytime. And we also include monthly announcements of interest to students in our region, so if you want to know when our next workshop is offered, this is the best way to keep in touch.
We do not share e-mail addresses with anyone!
Go here for the most recent issue.
Ready to sign up? If not, look at our common questions below. If so, just fill in your name, e-mail address, and location (just to help us know what regions we're talking to).
Once you confirm your subscription, the GaelMinn Gazette will arrive directly in your e-mail box once a month. Please remember that you signed up! (Sometimes people report 'spam' after they sign up and then get an e-mail they don't recognize a month later.) You'll know it is our e-zine from the GaelMinn Gazette in the subject line.
How will this work? You will use this page to sign up for the GaelMinn Gazette. Once the sign up process is complete, you'll receive a short, text-only e-mail from us once a month. The signup process is automatically handled by our list manager, and you can manage your subscription yourself, or cancel at anytime. We will not share your e-mail address, and the "double opt-in" process described below makes sure that nobody else -- including us -- signs you up for an e-zine you don't want.
We just want your name and e-mail, and a location -- city and state/province, or city and country, if outside the U.S. We only collect the location so that we know where our readers come from, and what regional news might be of interest to them.
What will be in the Gazette? The GaelMinn Gazette has information for two audiences that we have served separately, for the most part, up to now. We mail workshop announcements, and our newsletter An Gaeilgeoir, far and wide, as well as making contact with people interested in Irish, around the world, through this web site. At the same time, we frequently have announcements of a more local nature, for our weekly students and regional friends and supporters.
In the Gazette, readers from all locations will find announcements of workshops, tips and puzzle excerpts from An Gaeilgeoir, strategies for learning the language, and occasional pointers to events and happenings that will interest a wide range of students, teachers, and 'lurkers'. We will also share experiences from our classroom that might help others. And we'll carry some very brief local announcements for our regular classes and local members.
How do I sign up? The form above is the first step in signing up for the GaelMinn Gazette. Shortly after you submit the form, you will receive an e-mail (at the address you entered) asking you to confirm that you have signed up (the second step). You will click on a link that will take you to a confirmation page. This ensures that neither we nor anyone else signs you up without you knowing about it.
Can you sign me up? No, you have to sign up yourself, by taking the two steps described above. When you "opt in" by submitting the form, and then confirm that you have chosen to receive the e-mail, this protects you against unwanted e-mails, and also helps us comply with spam regulation and etiquette (which helps get our e-mail through to you, since we are unlikely to be listed by your ISP as an ill-behaved source).
How do I unsubscribe, change my e-mail, etc.? The subscription system is highly automated. Every GaelMinn Gazette will include instructions for unsubscribing, and a location where you can can go to manage your subscription.
