How do you talk about what’s happening around you in Arabic? In this course, current events become our classroom material. Every day, we’ll work with news from Palestine, Israel, and across the Arab world, selected and rewritten by our teachers into natural Palestinian Arabic, making real and relevant content accessible while keeping the language rich and challenging. We’ll build the vocabulary needed to understand and discuss current events, while practicing how to summarize stories, explain developments, express opinions, compare perspectives, and take part in more complex conversations in Arabic. The news will also give us reason to revisit grammar and push our language further. Through each story, we’ll work with more complex sentence structures, connectors, and ways of organizing and expressing ideas clearly through material that is current, relevant, and worth talking about. *** We have made a change in our pricing structure and are offering a sliding scale in order to give you the opportunity to donate 100 or 200 shekels to our scholarship & emergency fund.

This course bridges the gap between structured Beginner Arabic and the more open, less-filtered world of Intermediate learning.

Topics include the Nakba and displacement, cities, villages and refugee camps, cultural and legal identity, food, art, freedom of movement, politics, public discourse, and current realities. Interactive online activities and small-group work give students plenty of opportunities to speak, exchange ideas, and use Palestinian Arabic independently thus, making real and relevant content accessible while keeping the language rich and challenging.

Why do we vote? How do we vote? The universal right to elect and be elected is a defining feature of modern polities and a cornerstone of citizenship. We are taught, both formally and informally, that voting is a civic duty and a democratic right, indeed, a privilege. When that right is restricted or denied, we tend to see it as a serious democratic failure. And yet our understanding of why people vote, how they vote, and why some do not vote remains incomplete. This course approaches these questions through voting patterns in Israel, with particular attention to the 2026 elections, which, once again, are framed as critical to Israel’s future. *** Early Bird Price Start at - 1400 NIS - Until 06/09 Reduced Price Start at - 1550 NIS - Until 04/10 Full Price Start at - 1700 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.
