HEBREW – EASY TO LEARN IN TEL AVIV
Hebrew lessons by Kim Rich
individually tailored study programs & Special Course for Beginners (Hebrew in 7 days)
My name is Kim Rich, and I am a Hebrew teacher that have been teaching at all levels for many years. I know from experience that, with the right teacher, learning Hebrew can be easy – and fun. Anyone can succeed.
Together we will work out a program tailored to your specific needs and interests – from simple general conversation to advanced discussion on specific subjects. We can also focus on reading and writing skills and correct pronounciation – it’s up to you.
Lessons are adapted individually to suit your personal level – whether you are just getting started, still visiting an Ulpan program, have already completed a Hebrew course, or are already fluent and now want to fine-tune your Hebrew skills.
QUALIFICATIONS
I have a university degree in Hebrew language and have taught Hebrew in various settings – in Ulpan programs, as a private instructor, and even on a call-in radio program, correcting common mistakes by native speakers.
Call me if you would like to know more – I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

recommendations
Studying with Kim was en enjoyable experience. She’s an interesting person and a wonderful teacher. After an intensive course, in six weeks, I was able to read and maintain a conversation.
After having spent a month learning Hebrew with Kim I can honestly say that she is a very dedicated and unique teacher who knows exactly what she’s doing. Her constant encouragement brings out the best in you and makes you feel that in some way you can master the language and use it to make sense of the world around. She has her own teaching method with a sense of order. While setting high standards and articulating clear goals, she always stays caring, motivating and persuasive not to mention her great sense of humor, kindness and the spontaneous drive and passion for student learning. I feel very lucky to have such a teacher. I can only recommend her.
I’ve been coming to Tel Aviv for over 20 years, and always take some Hebrew lessons when I’m there. Kim is the best teacher I’ve found. She’s easy-going, and knows how to explain things so that you can understand them and – more importantly – so that you can remember them. And she’s great on pronunciation – that way, you not only understand what people say to you, but they also understand what you answer.
I started learning Hebrew alone while abroad but arriving in Israel I decided to study with a teacher. I made huge progress thanks to Kim within a few months.
Why Choose Me
The teaching method and materials were developed by the teacher herself, a highly qualified expert in modern Israeli Hebrew, with extensive experience in the teaching of Hebrew as a foreign language, both in private lessons and in groups (Ulpan).
Classes are individually tailored to fit students’ interests and level. Materials are chosen from areas that the students choose – in the belief that we all learn more quickly, when the subject interests us.
Courses are available at all levels – for businessmen, diplomats, academics, Olim Hadashim – whether still in an Ulpan, or as a follow-up – and anyone who just feels like improving their ability to speak and read Hebrew.

guided imagery learning
To help students learn more quickly and to retain what they learn I make use of visual imagery and figurative language to explain words and concepts. This is a well-known and proven tool for
memory improvement. Since unusual visual images tend to be easy to remember, linking them to the language helps students learn faster, without stress or exaggerated effort.
Via Skype
I also give online lessons via Skype, so you can reach me wherever you are. Although it is an online education, it is very personal, as if we are sitting in the same room. Each student gets a private lesson, a personally designed curriculum according to his level, personality and goals. You’re always invited to try.
