Hebrew language courses expose new learners to a series of comprehensive exercises that move students from the mechanical, to the meaningful, to the communicative. Class sessions are individually designed to introduce and drill grammar and syntax (mechanical), interpret texts and recognize speech (meaningful), and engage in dialogue and written expression (communicative). Through grammatical instruction, written and verbal exercise, oral review, and regular homework, students will gradually acquire language fundamentals and increasing language competency. Elementary Hebrew classes offer a clear path toward language acquisition, while intermediate and advanced tutorials in Hebrew will improve and strengthen basic skills. Those students who have a high degree of fluency from home or school are in an excellent position to major or minor in Hebrew. Feel free to contact the program director for details.
