A Few Words About Me
I live in Tel Aviv, where I teach Hebrew and work on my second degree in the Studies of the Hebrew Language. During my spare time I enjoy reading, cooking and listening to music. In my studies in the past, I have focused on Chinese religion and learnt several foreign languages. Languages fascinate me. I love learning them and enjoy playing a role in the learning process of others. I find the Hebrew language – its diverse layers, its cultural richness and its history of revival in the modern era – particularly intriguing.
I started teaching Hebrew in the summer of 1994. In the following year, I acquired the Hebrew University’s Teachers Certificate for teaching Hebrew as a second language.
I believe that as the world becomes more computerized, it is only natural that online learning comprises a growing part of education. This medium gives an opportunity to share a Hebrew moment with people all around the globe.
