OctOctober 29 , 2020Beginning Conversational Hebrew
Thursday, Oct 29th 7:00p to 8:15p
Can you read Hebrew and the siddur? Do you understand some of the words? If so, would you like to be able to actually use the language in basic conversations with others? This class is for those of you who can already read Hebrew and have a very beginning knowledge of the language but want to expand your vocabulary in order to hold a conversation. We will spend time each week practicing new vocabulary in a fun, casual environment. There will be online homework and then weekly practice sessions led by Racheli Ross. This class takes place in Zoom Room Bet. Please see the weekly Hineinu newsletter for the link. -
