I Study Hebrew.com

This is another online option for Ivrit for adults and children.  I don’t have any experience with this program, but it appears to be a synchronous (live) program like Hebrew Online providing you the opportunity to engage with the professor and other students live during your class.  I really believe this method is ideal.  Seems worth checking out.  The link below takes you to the class information.

Learn Hebrew

This site has an interesting set of categories of words you can learn including some critical phrases for the adult who has some knowledge but needs to fill in some vocabulary.  For example, there is a section on business terminology (like market size, revenue, etc.) and economics.

The site is well done with a blox that lets you click on the word to hear its pronunciation and phoenetic as well as hebrew spellings are visible.  The author has done a variety of other interesting sites for English and Spanish too.  Its worth checking out in the About section.

Another one of his that is great is for Hebrew verbs: http://www.hebrew-verbs.co.il

What I love about the verb site is it conjugates the verb for you and also lets you hear the conjugated variations.   

Hebrew Online

When I wanted to improve my own Hebrew, I turned to an online program, Hebrew Online, run out of Israel. The teachers were terrific, the program is solid. The program is synchronous learning: you log into the class at a designated time at your PC, the other classmates do as well from around the world. The instructor can be heard live, you respond live, and class is as if it were live: you will read, you will converse, you will be called on. http://www.hebrewonline.com

Class material is relevant. Articles from the paper are used, songs, classic stories. The teacher uses a powerpoint like screen in the classroom software to share slides when needed. Follow up homework is provided to help reinforce new vocabulary. Conversation is a key componant of the class as well to get you speaking and not just reading or writing.

I really enjoyed this experience. They are a class act. You take an online test to determine your level. That is followed up by a phone call from them to confirm what they think is the right level for you. They then place you in a class.

You have to pay for the full session which feels like a lot of $$. However, during my session it amounted to about $25/class which is reasonable for good instruction.
