Orlaith Devlin - English, EAL & AEN Teacher
Orlaith is originally from Galway and studied Gaeilge, Irish Studies, and English as parts of her BA which she undertook in the University of Galway. During her undergrad, Orlaith fell in love with learning and literature, with a particular enthusiasm for Irish literature. Wanting to pursue her passion for education and literature, Orlaith went on to study her Professional Masters in Education, with a specialisation in English.
Orlaith thoroughly enjoyed her final year of placement as a student teacher, which she undertook in GETSS. She also worked as a classroom assistant for the University of Galway’s Youth Academy and as a tutor for the university’s ‘Grinds4Mincéirs’ programme, which provided grinds and support for students from the travelling community aspiring to go to university. Orlaith returned to GETSS in 2023 as a qualified teacher.
