2010 Venue and Fees
Cymdeithas Madog will be heading home to Wales for the 34th annual Cwrs Cymraeg Welsh language week. Cwrs Cymraeg 2010 will be held July 25 - August 1, 2010, at Cardiff University in Cardiff, Wales.
Cwrs Cymraeg (which simply means "Welsh Course") emphasizes the spoken language, with classroom instruction at various levels ranging from absolute beginners to quite advanced. The teaching staff of experienced Welsh-speaking instructors is brought from Wales and North America. There are approximately 5 hours of language class each day, supplemented by further language and culture-related activities in the afternoon. Evening events such as singing, folk dancing, Welsh-language films, and a Noson Lawen (talent night) provide additional opportunities to relax while enjoying a Welsh-language atmosphere.
