🔥 Why is Hebrew so challenging and are there ways to learn it the easy way?
Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Hebrew. In reality, you can gain basic Hebrew fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback several hours a week you will be able to understand most sentences, have simple conversations, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and fun way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Hebrew. After gaining basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Hebrew tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced learners.
🤷 How long does it take to master Hebrew?
Some people just have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Hebrew will take at least 600 hours of study. The amount of time can differ by a lot depending on your existing level of Hebrew or knowledge of other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is best to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, start a journal or write posts and comments using your new language skills, look for native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in Hebrew out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational Hebrew classes online.
🤳 How many possibilities do I choose among when I select the right Hebrew coach?
In language learning academies, there's a chance you can choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, of course! The largest selection of approved Hebrew tutors with extensive profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning platforms like Preply.
