Why iHebrew®?
“Akiba Shechter is a K-12 Jewish day school
in Chicago. We have been working with the
iHebrew® program for 2 years now.
The program is excellent, up-to-date and
modern, and thanks to its unique method,
the students have been developing amazing listening and speaking skills.
Both parents and students have discovered the beauty of modern Hebrew, and
feel comfortable using it via popular Israeli songs, humorous dialogs and
commonly used Israeli phrases. The ability to use the language is definitely felt
through the school, and especially in classes that use the iHebrew® program.
Thanks so much to the entire Ulpan-Or staff!”
Shlomit Hoch, Middle School Hebrew Teacher
Why iHebrew®?
“Hillel Academy is a community
day school, TK - 8th grade and
with close to 200 students. This is
the first year that we’ve been
using the full program, 3rd year in which we’ve used the of E-tone®.
We chose iHebrew® after being convinced how wonderful the full program is.
Ulpan- Or is been taught in 5th - 8th grades. Both teachers and students love
Hebrew classes. It has changed attitudes.
In a matter of 2-3 months, our students are so much confident in their Hebrew
speaking abilities! You can hear Hebrew been spoken in the hallways, at lunch,
and even in their Math or Science classes. Yeshar Koach on a job well done!”
Ilana Ladetzy, Middle School Hebrew Teacher & Hebrew Coordinator
