Best Hebrew Learning I’ve Found on the Internet I had 9 years of Hebrew school while growing up as a child in New York many years ago, but have learned more about how to speak it from these last 2 months of podcasts! Very, very good and highly professional. So good, in fact, that I signed up as a 6 month subscriber ! The lessons are clear and logical, with each successive lesson building on the last. It is great to hear the proper Israeli pronunciations during these lessons as well. I especially like the breakdown of the word roots and how multiple words are related. It makes more sense to me in remembering them. Toda raba J, L, and E!

(Published on iTunes. March 16, 2008. Read more Learn Hebrew Pod reviews on iTunes ) Thank you so much for making this teaching available. It is the best method I have found, after searching high and low for a good way to learn Hebrew. Now I listen to the iPod lessons during my workout in the gym before I go to work in the morning and get training for my body and my brain at the same time. I´m telling my friends about this website and hopefully you will be seeing more students signing up from Iceland. Shalom, Thank you so much for making this wonderful website and podcast series available. I recently began working with colleagues in Jerusalem and wished to learn a bit of Hebrew to add in our conversations. I absolutely love the method of teaching, translation and learning that these conversational Hebrew podcasts offer. It is also great teaching family and friends the new words and phrases that I learn, and they enjoy it too. Thank you once again for making this available. I hope that this website, podcast and the great experience it brings continues to grow.
Jeremy, CA, United States I have only good things to say. Your teaching technique is fabulous and I am making progress. Your programs are entertaining, practical and well presented. I suggest you change nothing! Keep them coming.
I just discovered your site today-- what a find!!! I'm a 'beginning intermediate' adult Hebrew student (both Biblical/prayerbook and Modern... love chanting Torah!), but very weak in conversational skills. As my husband and I will be visiting Israel in early January to visit our daughter and her Israeli husband (they made aliyah in April 2008), we both want to improve our basic conversational abilities. How wonderful to find your site! I love being able to download Hebrew to my mp3 player (I'm a subscriber to the bi-weekly beginner newspaper 'Bereshit' also...).
One of the real strengths of your careful teaching is how you break down each word SLOWLY so that new learners can really hear what they are going to be trying to reproduce-- so often on Hebrew audio programs I've used, *everything* is read or spoken a 'normal' speeds, which can all just start to 'mush' together and become incomprehensible for a beginner. You help students REACH for normal speeds, by truly helping them understand what it is that they are actually hearing-- THEN a person can also begin to hear it at the faster paces of more normal conversational speeds. BRAVO on this wonderful site-- I will definitely be recommending to my friends seeking to learn Modern Hebrew! Susan, Kittanning, Pennsylvania, United States
This is terrific. Your podcasts are really outstanding. I have been using the podcasts for about a month and it is really helping me with my Hebrew. I enjoy it so much that I have decided to subscribe.
I look forward to learning with you in the months ahead.
My Hebrew name is Klila Bracha. I am Indonesian but I am living in Japan since I was little. I'm a musician of "Ethnic Fusion". I am composing & performing Israeli music a lot, especially for the Yom Hazikaron for over 15 years as well as Indonesian and Japanese. I am also using Indonesian, Japanese and Israeli instruments for my performance.

Scott, Pleasanton,California, United States Thank you! Thank you very much! I've been trying to be part of the miracle of Israel, the redemption of the land, language and people. I've been using various books and programs but have found "learnhebrewpod" to be by far the most effective for me. Again, toda raba!
Elena, Grover Beach, California, United States Shalom, Jonathan, Liat and Eran. Happy 60th anniversary to Isreal! I am a Japanese woman live in Kobe, Japan. Last year I was in NY. and I was in a workplace where almost all were Jewish people. There I've got many Jewish friends. They were allways so nice to me and still are. I miss them so much. Some of them have families in Isreal. My dream is visit to Jerusalem one day. So I start to Learn Hebrew Pod. But I'm soooo slow. now it's May but I'm still listening lesson 9 and also still cannot count in Hebrew. I'm so sad. But I always enjoy lessons. I love Liat's voice especially. But lucky me. One of the only two synagogue in Japan is only 2 minutes walk from my home. So I visit there time to time. Rabbi talks first in Hebrew then in English. Now I can catch only few words like shalom or ata but hope someday I can understand his Hebrew. and read Torah in Hebrew!! Learn Hebrew Pod is a great program. pdf is also great. And it is not expensive. I'm so happy to have this program. Imagine how I was happy when I found this on podcast. Before this program, in Japan I was almost had no way to learn Hebrew. So toda. ve le׳hitra׳ot Dear Johnathan, Eran and Liat, I think this product is absolutely wonderful, I have found it the best way to learn hebrew at my own pace and I have to compliment you on your fantastic lesson plans, interactive games and overall presentation of the hebrew pod package. I am very very grateful that you have such a product out there on the market. Thanks again for such a great product, I look forward to working my way through your course as I learn hebrew before I go back to israel. Kind regards Cameron, Queensland , Milton, Brisbane, Australia
I just discovered your podcast on itunes and loved it. I am even more thrilled to see that I can read what I am hearing on this website. My boyfriend is excited (and I'm sure his mother will be too!) that I am starting my Hebrew lessons. Thank you!
Laura, San Francisco, CA, United States Great! i've been learning Hebrew for a week on your site and when I went to see 'Waltzing with Bashir' today I could actually understand some of the words. Well, only stuff like ken and lo and ad and ani and ata, but it made me feel good. Seret tov, by the way. Shalom! Please allow me to tell you how much I love your podcast! The three of you have wonderful, welcoming personalities which make listening to your interactions a very pleasant experience.

Shalom LearnHebrewPod I have been trying to learn Hebrew for many years. I have bought a number of programs and downloaded various computer programs. But over the past few days I have been listening to yours on my iPod and I feel that you three have become friends-chaverim. I took you with me on the car trip to Darwin, then on a small plane to a remote Aboriginal community in Arnhem Land. Then in a 4wd to an even more remote place with no electricity, and I have been working my way through the basic lessons. Fantastic! Now that I am back home in Katherine, I am signing up for 12 months and really looking forward to making better progress. Toda, Chris I've just listened and read lesson 1a. Your teaching method is just what I've been looking for: easy, functional and... "pleasant"!
