Find the right path for you

Whether you're taking your first steps in Hebrew or looking to take your skills to the next level, there's a place for you here

Beginner 
Aleph (א׳)

Build your Hebrew foundations, learn everyday vocabulary, and start speaking with confidence. From introducing yourself to asking simple questions, one conversation at a time.

Intermediate
Bet (ב׳)

Go beyond basic conversations, expand your vocabulary, and share more of your world. We’ll practice present and past tenses as we talk about everyday life topics and swap stories.

Advanced & Beyond Gimel–Dalet (ג׳–ד׳)+

Explore more complex topics, dive into deeper conversations, and practice using all three tenses. We’ll dig deeper into Israeli slang, idioms, and humor—so you can get the joke, have your say, and start sounding like a local.

Tailored to Your Goals

Your work, your interests, your next challenge—let’s make Hebrew part of it. From exploring articles to preparing for a job interview or the Yael Test, we’ll focus on what matters to you.

Group classes

Learn together.
Go further. 

Strengthen your Hebrew!

Learn together, share experiences, and explore Hebrew in a small, supportive group.

From everyday moments to the things that make life in Israel unique, each lesson explores a different topic, introducing useful vocabulary that we’ll put into practice with group activities, dialogues, role-play, and written exercises.

We’ll also discover Hebrew through songs, share our own stories, and exchange ideas, bringing the language to life together.

GRAMMAR THAT MAKES SENSE

​

We explore grammar from beginner to advanced levels, building strong foundations through clear explanations, structured practice, and experiential learning.

03

LEARN BY DOING

 

New vocabulary comes to life through conversations, presentations, songs, simulations and written exercises — so you actively use Hebrew in context.

02

01

REAL LIFE & CULTURE


We explore everyday situations, Israeli culture, society and current topics — including the slang, expressions and humor you will hear in everyday conversations.

Hebrew that makes sense -
and feels alive

My lessons follow a clear, structured learning path, but the learning itself is dynamic and personal. Your experiences, interests and everyday life naturally become part of the conversation and practice — making Hebrew more meaningful, relevant and easier to remember.

First of all, I want you to enjoy coming to class.

About me

Hi, I’m Shelly

I’m a Hebrew teacher and learning content developer with years of experience teaching at an ulpan and independently.

​

I hold a degree in the social sciences, with a background in communication, design, and acting. I spent years traveling the world as a flight attendant.

The places I’ve visited and cultures I’ve encountered have shaped the way I teach today - with enthusiasm, creativity, curiosity, and empathy for people navigating new beginnings!

​

To me, language is much more than words and grammar- it opens up a whole world of culture and connection. My goal is to help my students feel more at home in Hebrew and in life in Israel.

I can highly highly highly recommend Shelly! We met through this group and friends already comment on how much my Hebrew has leveled up. I'm actually using it and speaking with Israeli friends in Hebrew without having to switch back to English (never thought I could lol)

Def hit her up for lessons, she's fab

Shelly is an incredible teacher who adapts her lessons to your level and to what you want to improve on in Hebrew. She really improved my confidence in speaking the language (the hardest part!) and the best part of it all is that she keeps her lessons super fun - it’s basically like hanging out with a friend!

החוויה שלי בלימוד עם שלי הייתה מקסימה. היא לקחה את הזמן להבין בדיוק מה הייתי צריכה לשפר והתאימה את שיטת הלימוד אליי. היה כיף ללמוד איתה, והיא באמת עזרה לי לפתח ביטחון עצמי בשפה. בזכותה, העברית שלי השתפרה משמעותית, והצלחתי לקבל ציון מצוין במבחן יע"ל. אני ממליצה על שלי כמורה לעברית לכל מי שמעוניין לשפר את העברית שלו ביעילות וללמוד עם מישהי בעלת ידע רב שבאמת אכפת לה מהתלמידים שלה. :)))

I've never had a tutor as qualified, patient, dedicated, and friendly as Shelly. It's been a total pleasure learning from her, and I really believe my Hebrew has improved leaps and bounds thanks to her efforts. She builds lesson plans that are specifically catered to my level and needs. She gives explanations that are easy to grasp, and finds creative ways to make the whole process really enjoyable. The sessions fly by in minutes. I would 100% wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone interested in learning or improving their Hebrew
