This advanced Hebrew course explores Israeli society through the analysis of influential speeches delivered by key public figures. Each week, we will examine a different speech, focusing on its historical, social, and political context, as well as the rhetorical strategies and messages it conveys. To develop strong expressive and communicative skills, the course incorporates structured debate techniques. Students will practice presenting arguments, responding to opposing viewpoints, and expressing complex ideas in clear and confident Hebrew. In order to participate fully, students are expected to prepare between classes by completing short readings, conducting basic research, and watching or listening to the assigned speech for the following week. This ongoing preparation supports a deeper and more meaningful learning experience, and expectations will be communicated clearly from the beginning. The course emphasizes interactive discussion, critical thinking, and vocabulary enrichment, with grammar taught in an integrated, context-based way.

The word “shalom” is one of the most common words in the Hebrew language, whether as a greeting when meeting and parting, as a formal address, in everyday conversations, in articles that are passionate, pessimistic or naive, in philosophical writings, or within the sacred Hebrew texts of prayer and the Hebrew Bible. In Arabic as well, the word “salam” is present in daily life and in the holy scriptures. In both Hebrew and Arabic, the root of the word derives from shalem, expressing wholeness, inner peace, and reconciliation. And yet, between these two sister languages, so close to one another, both invoking peace in almost every encounter, peace itself remains an ongoing process that demands great effort on a daily basis. Throughout the course, we will explore various concepts of shalom as they appear in Hebrew writings and traditions, from biblical times to the present day. By engaging with songs, poetry, sacred texts, articles, essays, and key figures in Jewish and Israeli culture, we will discover together the many meanings of this everyday word, so simple, and yet so profound and full of longing: shalom. *** Early Bird Price Start at - 1300 NIS - Until 15/03 Reduced Price Start at - 1400 NIS - Until 05/04 Full Price Start at - 1500 NIS - Until first lesson of the course We have made a small change in our pricing structure and are now offering a sliding scale in order to give you the opportunity to donate 100 or 200 shekels when you buy a course.

Unlock a deeper understanding of Israeli society through the lens of its most compelling true crime mysteries. This intermediate Hebrew course moves beyond the textbook, using landmark criminal cases as a window into the evolving cultural and social landscape of Israel and Palestine. By analyzing authentic news reports, legal archives, and media discourse, students will enhance their reading and writing skills while investigating a provocative theme: how language is used to construct narratives and marginalize social groups. This is more than a language class; it is a critical exploration of the power of words in shaping justice, identity, and history. *** Early Bird Price Start at - 1300 NIS - Until 15/03 Reduced Price Start at - 1400 NIS - Until 05/04 Full Price Start at - 1500 NIS - Until first lesson of the course We have made a small change in our pricing structure and are now offering a sliding scale in order to give you the opportunity to donate 100 or 200 shekels when you buy a course.

Is there such a thing as “Israeli food”? What role has food played in shaping Israeli identity? How does the culinary landscape in Israel reflect the country’s ethnic and class divisions? And what counts as comfort food? In this course, we will dive into the pressure cooker of Israeli culinary politics. Together, we will watch cooking shows, read menus and recipes, explore the past and present of local food culture — and maybe even cook ourselves! We will explore debates around cultural fusion vs. cultural appropriation, especially in relation to Palestinian cuisine, and ask: who gets credit for the flavors that define a nation? Through these activities, we will examine the connections and tensions between food and issues such as gender, nationality, class, religion, ethnicity and more, and gain further insight into the society in this land. *** Early Bird Price Start at - 1300 NIS - Until 15/03 Reduced Price Start at - 1400 NIS - Until 05/04 Full Price Start at - 1500 NIS - Until first lesson of the course We have made a small change in our pricing structure and are now offering a sliding scale in order to give you the opportunity to donate 100 or 200 shekels when you buy a course.
