I'm an Israeli with love and passion for the Hebrew language.
I have a Master in Education (M.Ed.) specializing in Instructional Design which is the art and science of creating effective and efficient learning experiences.
Since 2009 I have been teaching Hebrew to MIT students going to Israel for summer internships and this course is based on the lessons I learned doing so.
