"The Hebrew language will go from the synagogue to the house of study, and from the house of study to the school, and from the school it will come into the home and... become a living language."
- Eliezar Ben-Yehuda
Course Description :

This Advanced course will be focusing mostly on consolidating the acquired knowledge- vocabulary and grammatical structures - while expanding on the fundamental skills: reading, comprehension and speaking. Participants will be provided with appropriate literary texts and modern media articles. The selected material and the interactive class discussions will enable you to connect with the daily life and with the multiple different aspects of the dynamic cultural Hebrew scene in Israel and around the world.
