I’m Welsh but didn’t learn much as a kid. Really want to be able to be confident in having conversations in Welsh and this podcast is a great way to start doing that. Jason is a great teacher, very clear and easy to follow and each episode is balanced well between revision from last time and learning a lot of new stuff so you feel you are making progress but not so much that you feel overwhelmed.

Thanks Jason for these great lessons and your commitment to keeping them free and accessible for everyone who wants to learn Welsh.

I’ve spent months working through duo lingo just to fall ill and forget it all, I’ve now recovered and this podcast is WAY better than duo lingo, so simple, effective, and FREE! It is helping me regain my confidence in languages and will hopefully open many career options in the future! Thanks so much! 😊

I have dedicated so much time to Duo Lingo and only for my North Welsh relatives to be perplexed by some of the words.

This podcast covers North and South Welsh words and phrases and a days listening is equivalent to a fortnight on Duo Lingo.

I really like this podcast. The host is engaging and funny and has the best accent. His visualisation tips and other ways of remembering are really useful, and he does the differences between north and South Wales. I could remember most of what I learned in the first ep! Totally recommend.

I am in primary school and I struggle with my pronunciation in Welsh and this podcast really helps me learn.

I am learning Welsh so that I have the option of teaching in Wales in the future. This podcast is fantastic and the memory techniques used have far surpassed other methods I have tried like babbel. I just hope it's still being made!

I've no idea whether the lessons are good or not because I can't start the course because the first 5 lessons aren't available.

Really great!! Helpful for cementing information and how to pronounce welsh language!

The Learn Welsh Podcast is a fun, entertaining way to learn the Welsh language and find out about Welsh culture. Host Jason Shepherd is a gentleman, has a great delivery and always has an entertaining tale to tell -- but he also expertly teaches what you need to know in order to speak the language with confidence. He makes sure you can grasp the pronounciation and gives you great insight as to how the Welsh language functions. For instance, mutations, a feature of all Celtic languages, seems daunting, but Shepherd breaks it all down in a way that helps you to understand why and how certain sounds change. If you're looking for a way to learn Welsh while feeling as if your teacher is right there in the room with you, then the Learn Welsh Podcast is for you.

These podcasts are great - and FREE! Jason is an excellent teacher and presents them really well. They are easy to use and just the right length for concentration. Jason makes this beautiful but difficult language so much easier to understand. He has also started a support group on Facebook - we're a friendly and supportive community, all trying to learn and use Welsh, so come and join us!

Its lovely to be able to learn a language which i have always wanted to know. I am half welsh a used to live in Wales i still visit about 3 times every year and wish to move back one day. This podcast is helping me make my dream come true as i would love to talk to my family and friends in the native language. So diolch yn fawr jason and all the LWP team for putting this on as it is so easiy to learn from keep it up please and please post more episodes!

Lived in wales all my life but never learnt the language. Tried out this podcast hoping to pick some phrases up but I can't believe how much is sinking in. Well set out and strangely relaxing. Thanks and keep up the good work. Diolch yn fawr.

I decided to learn Welsh a couple of weeks ago and these podcasts have been incredibly useful in learning common words and phrases, with some colloquial stuff as well! They've been especially helpful with pronunciation, having never encountered Ch's and Ll's before!

Highly recommended!!

I would like to write an essay on how good this is, it's like your not even learning listening to these but picking up so much.

Well done Jason!!!

Thank you Jason! I am trying to learn welsh and finding your podcast excellent as I listen to them on my way to work every day!

This is truly a fantastic way to learn the basics of the Welsh language! Keep it coming...more more more! Diolch yn fawr!

As a newcomer to North Wales I wanted to integrate with the community, culture and idiom. Wales is one of the best countries on the globe, the culture is so rich, and the people so welcoming.

The LWP has been very useful in gaining the first footings of the language. So "Diolch yn fawr" for the revised episodes to date, and please let's have more.

ha ha ha im in yr 6 my teacher is going to love me talking to her in welsh becuase she is welsh thanks for helping!

Di'iawn that there is such a podcast!! But the first few episodes will not play!! Anyone able to sort this out?? Hope so as would lileyo better my Welsh!!

Pob clod i ti, ma'r podcast 'ma's wych. :) Da iawn.

I unrhyw un sy' moin dysgu'r Gymraeg, ma' hwn yn le arbennig i ddechre. (Y)

How do you open the PDF file. I can't seem to open it

Excellent. The right words, good pace and friendly delivery. If only Latin at school had been done this way

Brilliant! Jason presents the podcast in a down to earth and accessible way. The lessons are the perfect length to listen to in the car during the daily commute - hopefully the other drivers don't think I'm too mad, talking to myself in Welsh... Accompanying notes for each lesson also give details on spellings, etc. Really good!

This is an excellent podcast - really helpful and it's put across in a way that makes the basics of the Welsh language seem really easy to learn! Great work!

It's about time there was something like this. He really should get funding from the Assembly or something..

Brilliant, very accessible, a must for anyone.

I'm going to Aberystwyth University in September, and wanted to learn some welsh before I go- I also get very bored at work- The perfect solution!

I was born in Camarthenshire but now live in brighton and often go and visit my grandparents back in Llangadog. I thought it would be really fun to learn welsh as my grandma and cousin know it to. These podcasts are really good and helpful. Very easy to listen to.

Being from a welsh background, but only being able to speak a few words of welsh, i have longed to learn the language properly, and this podcast has helped me immensely,can't wait for more!
