Why choose Learn Hebrew Academy?
Quality
As a long-time academic and student of language, I know what it’s like to struggle with a new set of grammar rules, let alone a new alphabet. These experiences have helped me zero in on what aspects of a language are really important and how to effectively learn the essentials in short period of time.
These immersive classroom experiences, including learning modern Hebrew in Jerusalem for a summer, have allowed me to explore a variety of teaching strategies, the best of which will be incorporated into LHA’s lessons.
Above all else, learning (and teaching) is only really successful if infused with enjoyment, enthusiasm, and curiosity. That’s why you’re here, right?
Affordability
Learning anything is an investment, and trust me, I’ve invested innumerable amounts of time and money in my education, both formal and informal. The value of LHA is based on two things: the hours I’ve spent refining my craft and the hours built into this course to provide you the best opportunity to learn the language.
LHA is a convenient and affordable option that sits between university courses that meet 5 days week (and cost upwards of $2000) and casual, hard to retain community classes (and cost between $300-500). You get the best of both worlds with LHA — consistent, university-level quality plus affordability.
Accessibility
It’s easy to get left behind in a big classroom. With LHA’s video accessibility and user-friendly interface where you can ask questions of your classmates or your instructor (me!) anytime throughout the course, you certainly won’t be left behind.
The option to watch and learn at your own pace is invaluable, not to mention having lifetime access to the course content.
Beginning anything new can be intimidating — but it doesn’t have to be. With a supportive instructor, learning pace, and connection to fellow students, LHA has everything you need to succeed and enjoy the process!
What are students saying?
“Megan’s course is a much better buy than the online university Hebrew course I took. Her explanations are much more clear, and the book she uses has more practical and memorable exercises than the college-credit course I took. I sure wish Megan’s Aleph א course had been available when I began my Hebrew studies! Still, the Aleph course is filling in the gaps left by my university course.”
“Taking Biblical Hebrew has been a major highlight this year for me; I was always fascinated with this language and never thought I would be able to learn it. Well, thanks be to this program, it’s so possible. Megan is an incredibly talented teacher who guides you every step of the way and breaks it down into simple steps. Anyone can achieve learning Biblical Hebrew through this program.”
“The live classes are fun and interactive and the course material is well structured. Megan is an amazing instructor with a contagious love and passion for Hebrew.”
“This course is amazing! I have a copy of The Tehillim, Psalms and commentary that we had been given years ago. I was thrilled and encouraged at how much I could actually read and understand. I highly recommend! Five gold stars!”
“I am now on my way to recognizing simple Biblical verses myself by the end of this class!”
