Have you ever hiked through the desert, the sun high, dust swirling, with each step stirring the heat underfoot, when suddenly you hear it—the rush of water?

That’s the magic of עין גדי, pronounced /'e(y)-n 'ge-dee.

In a country like Israel, where rainfall is rare and every drop feels precious, stumbling upon a waterfall feels almost miraculous.

Tucked along the shores of the Dead Sea, עין גדי is exactly this kind of hidden paradise.

The waterfalls here aren’t grand or towering like those in lush rainforests, but there’s a wild beauty to them.

Water trickles down limestone cliffs, creating crystal-clear pools fringed with greenery that seems to defy the surrounding desert.

Visiting עין גדי isn’t just about seeing water; it’s about feeling it.

Israel’s deserts don’t easily reveal their secrets, but places like עין גדי are their gifts to us, a reminder of nature’s power and resilience.

New chalkboard, new Hebrew speakers, and endless motivation 💙👩‍🏫

This board is filled with incredible people who’ve committed to speaking and understanding Hebrew over the past month.

One of my favorites?

Ilana and her daughter 👩‍👦 learning and practicing together.

You’ve got to hear how adorable her daughter is, and how amazing Ilana is at teaching her what she’s just learned (which was her ultimate goal) 🎙️

Thank you, Angela!

Your progress in Hebrew is amazing, and your appreciation means the world to me. I’m so grateful for this video and your feedback. Enjoy your trip to Israel, and don’t forget to send me videos of you speaking Hebrew!

If you want to enjoy the same success, clarity, and confidence comment “SPEAK” and I will show you how to start today 🇮🇱

What are your favorite things about Israel?

I'll start.

1. How walkable it is.

2. Best morning sandwiches 🤤 in the world!

3. How safe I feel (I know this may sound weird, but I have lived in Europe and in the US, and travelled the world quite a bit, and it is one of safest places, especially as a woman - despite the news).

4. There is so much to do everywhere you go! Art, music, lectures, museums, shows...

5. My favorite people are there. Had to mention that as well.

Time is your most precious resource. In my Hebrew course, Practically Speaking Hebrew, every minute is maximized.

From day one, you'll dive into practical conversations, avoiding endless grammar drills and boring memorization. You'll practice sentences relevant to you, making learning efficient and fun.

My unique approach ensures your time is invested wisely, turning each lesson into a step closer to fluency. With my support and feedback, you'll quickly gain confidence in speaking Hebrew naturally.

Comment if you're interested, and I'll send you the details.

Students in my course already know how we Israelis incorporate language into our everyday speech:

Some terms are purely Hebrew, others are borrowed from English or different languages, and in some cases - both the Hebrew and non-Hebrew terms are used interchangeably.

Take "massage" for instance.

In Hebrew, it's עיסוי /ee-'sooy/, but you'll hear many say מסאז' /ma-'saj/ just as frequently.

So, if you're considering indulging in one while in Israel—and I wholeheartedly encourage it—feel at ease using whichever term comes more naturally to you.

It’s a win-win situation, allowing you to communicate effectively while also applying your language skills seamlessly.

Enjoy and relax – you've got this!

In my teaching I emphasize the nuances that will help you speak the most local and common Hebrew, steering clear of low-level mistakes that do not leave the best impression or lead to misunderstandings

It’s about mastering the pronunciation & word choices that will make your speech sound natural and confident, without falling into traps that could make you sound derogatory, foreign, or awkward

This delicate balance is a fine art & it’s something I take upon myself to perfect for your benefit

As your guide I ensure you learn Hebrew that feels genuine & fluent, capturing the essence of how most Israelis speak while maintaining linguistic integrity

This nuanced approach is priceless for anyone aiming to speak Hebrew like a true local, enhancing both your fluency & your cultural connection

If that is the Hebrew you want to speak, ✍️ comment the word SPEAK 👈 and I'll send you a message guiding you how to start today

In the rugged desert of Israel, amidst the timeless beauty of the Dead Sea, lies Masada—an ancient fortress that embodies the spirit of resilience and determination.

Perched majestically on a towering plateau, Masada whispers tales of courage and defiance against all odds.

Here, against the backdrop of history etched in stone, we learn that strength is not just physical, but also the unwavering resolve of the human spirit.

Masada stands as a testament to the enduring will of a people who chose freedom over surrender.
Let us remember that like those who once stood here, we too can overcome our obstacles, scale the heights of our ambitions, and fortify our spirits with the indomitable courage that Masada symbolizes.

May the spirit of Masada continue to inspire us all to reach for greater heights, uphold our values, and cherish the freedoms we hold dear.
