About

Ulpan La-Inyan makes speaking Hebrew a reality for immigrants and visitors to Israel, and for learners around the world, through carefully-crafted, ready-to-use lessons delivered in a warm environment by excellent teachers who love what they do.

At Ulpan La-Inyan, we know that while one must read and write in order to function in modern society, a language learner’s ability to speak and listen goes much further in determining their success in their new environment.

We have therefore adapted top language learning systems for the curriculum, hired patient, probing, excellent teachers who love what they do, and taken on a customer-service stance that blends the best of the West with Israeli camaraderie, to produce the most enjoyable and effective Hebrew language program you’ve ever come across.

Our Methodology

Ulpan La-Inyan provides a comprehensive Hebrew-learning experience focusing on the skills needed for conversation. To that end, we employ these time-tested language-learning principles:

• Core Spoken Vocabulary – Students learn to speak words and phrases essential for conversation.
• Anticipation – Throughout the lessons, students are asked to actively recall what they’ve learned, speaking their new words and phrases out loud.
• Graduated Interval Recall – Students are prompted to recall their new language bits at carefully-planned intervals designed to maximize long-term memory storage.
• Organic Learning – All of this takes place in the context of a programmed dialogue between Hebrew speakers, where the students play the roles of the speakers.

Beyond our formal speaking-listening lessons, we conduct free-style role plays and spontaneous dialogues and discussions, employ graphics to illustrate new vocabulary and provide grammatical instruction when needed. But the focus is always conversation.

Our Teachers

Ulpan La-Inyan teachers are not only skilled and talented, but they also love what they do: engaging and connecting with their students, empowering them to speak Hebrew with confidence, and immersing them in Israeli culture.

All our teachers speak English at a mother-tongue level. Many have traveled and spent time in different parts of the world. All have an affinity for the Hebrew language and an enthusiasm for imparting it.

We couldn’t be prouder of them.
