    Do you perhaps know how scholars of Scots Gaelic view his work?

    They also use another Scots Gaelic coach on Outlander; Carol Ann Crawford.

    Sorry, Mark, I missed your post and, for some reason, when it was transmitted to my personal mail, it went into spam!
    I think the guy is viewed as a bit of a crank and doesn't seem to have any contact with university researchers or the School of Scottish Studies or Sabhal Mòr Ostaig.
    Carol Ann Crawford is a long-standing actress/voice coach for non-Gaelic Scots accents and her ability is quite well demonstrated in the video clip even though she's a little bit rude about the Aberdeen(shire) accent. I wasn't aware that she had done anything with Gaelic.
