I’ve been studying Irish for many years with Daltaí na Gaeilge.  Daltaí has done tremendous work in the last thirty years to teach the language in the US northeast.  I named Coláiste Brógán after Daltaí’s founder, Ethel Brogan.  You can find out more about Irish classes and events in your area (even if you don’t live in the northeast…check out the “events’ page) at http://www.daltai.com
