Winter Hebrew Session with Milka Eliav
$140/members, $195/non-members.
Introductory Hebrew 5-6pm
This is the class for complete beginners with no prior knowledge. Learn
letters and vowels and how to put them together and read aloud. Gain an
understanding of how Hebrew differs from English and how it works. Gain some
basic vocabulary and build confidence in our approach to Hebrew. _*If you have
any experience, you should sign up for Prayer Book Reading (not this class)._
Prayer Book 6:15-7:00pm
If you can read Hebrew and want to improve your fluency, speed and confidence,
this is the class for you! We will focus on texts from the prayer book and the
Jewish Bible, dedicate some class time to discussing meaning and recurring
vocabulary, and learn some reading principles to help with fluency and
pronunciation. We will use the book _Prayer Book Hebrew, The Easy Way._
Beginning Conversation 7:15-8:00pm
This class offers a taste of modern Hebrew for Communication. Reading Hebrew
is a plus but not a requirement. We will jump right into Hebrew and learn to
introduce ourselves, ask questions, describe things like our families, our
jobs, and other common topics. We may even learn to order in an Israeli
restaurant. Come dip your toes in this Modern-ancient language and roll some
Hebrew off your tongue!
Advanced Conversation 8:15-9:00pm.
Advanced Conversation: If you can carry on a conversation in Hebrew on various
topics, this class is for you. Come join a relaxed and welcoming hour of
Hebrew only. Participants talk and read together about a wide range of
subjects, while highlighting grammatical points, enriching vocabulary, and
exploring cultural references. “Hebrew Table” at its best!
Register through the calendar on our website by January 23rd.
*Please note that we must have at least 5 people registered to run a class.
