testimonials

"Read, Write, Recite Hebrew really broke  down language learning into its constituent parts - reading, writing,  and speaking, letter by letter.  In this method, by the end of the book  and after only four one-hour sessions, I was comfortably familiar with  the entire aleph bet, both printed and handwritten, such that I could  read, write, and speak them in sequence forming words and short phrases  in both [print and script]. The important/basic words listed provided a  basis for conversational Hebrew and proved useful to me in my two months  living in Israel. " 

Enrique Navarro-Donnellan, 

MPP (Public Policy Master's) student at Pepperdine University.

"Michelle Geft has provided a great gift to the world of Jewish Education with her new work, Read, Write, Recite Hebrew.   Michelle's book delivers the basics of Hebrew in a clear and concise  manner, without talking down to her students, making this an appropriate  text for all grades from first grade through adult education.  Her  emphasis on teaching cursive script simultaneously with the block  letters provides an invaluable tool, even for those students who have  already mastered basic reading.  In short, I highly recommend Read, Write, Recite Hebrew as an indispensable addition to any Hebrew curriculum."  

Rabbi Judith HaLevy, 

Malibu Jewish Center and Synagogue

"My  eleven-year-old daughter started learning Hebrew to prepare for her Bat  Mitzvah using Read, Write, Recite Hebrew.  In eight one-hour sessions, she  was able to read and write Hebrew! We were so impressed with the clear  and fun way in which it was presented and had no idea it was possible to  learn a new language skill so quickly. I am thrilled that, because of  this book, my daughter feels confident to move forward in preparing for her Bat Mitzvah." 

Suzy G., 

Santa Monica, CA

"Read, Write and Recite Hebrew is a  great, classroom-tested, effective resource for teaching Hebrew in  record time! Your students will love this! Highly recommended!" 

Dr. Ron Wolfson, 

Fingerhut Professor of Education American Jewish University
