Hebrew Classes

The Edlavitch DCJCC offers many levels of conversational Hebrew, from learning the aleph-bet to reading advanced literature. Our teachers are native Hebrew speakers with extensive teaching experience, including at the university level. Not sure which level to take? Scroll down to learn more about each level.

"Hebrew classes at the EDJCC are phenomenal. I can’t believe how much I’ve absorbed in just a year’s worth of classes. The teaching is superb, the lessons well thought out, and I’m able to write and say sentences, decipher a lot of text I see, and feel more confident in my knowledge. This is a terrific class and my only regret is that I didn’t sign up sooner and start years ago!"


Yiddish Classes

We are so excited to offer two levels of Yiddish! No previous knowledge or experience required.

"Marianne Tatom is an amazing teacher, supportive, positive and creative. She draws from the rich and wonderful body of Yiddish culture to enhance each class; music, poetry, videos. She offers many suggestions to enrich our learning beyond the time in class. It has truly become a highlight of my week."
