Ganit was an incredible teacher who really molded the conversation to my level - she drew upon the vocabulary from the textbooks while mixing in some of the words I had learned on the street. She challenged me while simultaneously reinforcing structure. She made learning syntax easy by constantly drawing comparisons; therefore, building a strong foundation for me to move forward with as my knowledge of Hebrew grows. The weekly graduation ceremonies, in which each student is invited to share their week, was a great forum to meet people and become comfortable speaking in Hebrew. The course made an effort to integrate you not only with the other students but with Israel as well. It exceeded my expectations and I am excited to continue my studies with the program!
