What does Irish class actually entail?

Learning about the country's history, its culture, the language (though that'd probably be Gaelic class, now that I think about it), the differences between it and Scotland?

It's probably pretty general, considering he's from Ireland.
The equivalent of the English classes I had in school would be my guess. Although that is a good point, since those classes were mostly based around language-related topics... maybe they just couldn't bear to have a class called "English" taught in their schools? :P

My "English" classes were mostly actually lit classes, where we read English-language poems, novels and plays, discussed their context and style, etc. rather than just learning pointless grammar tricks all day.

The language. It's almost entirely dead, even inside the actual nation.
History classes have all of the history and culture of Ireland. We learn about all of what happened to ireland in history, but very little outside of that.
My Irish teacher is great, though, since she's the on,y teacher in the school who doesn't give out to you if you talk back.
Instead, she continues the back talking.

My Eng lit classes were mostly esoteric philosophy, extreme politics and top level banter
Contemporary English is a bad language to learn grammar in anyways, as it is so dodgy. Better to learn grammar from a foreign romance language, or a dead language like Latin, or even older forms of English, applying that to modern English. Wouldn't say it's pointless either, how authors use their grammar tricks is very important to style, and context is important but secondary I think, to text
