Adult Hebrew at Schaarai Zedek is designed for adults who want to build or strengthen their Hebrew skills in a supportive, low-pressure setting. Whether you are starting from the very beginning or looking to become more comfortable with the prayerbook, our classes help you gain confidence step by step.
Adult Hebrew is open to anyone who would like to learn. Classes are a good fit for adults who never learned Hebrew as children, those who want a refresher, parents with children in Religious School, and anyone interested in participating more fully in services and Jewish life.
Depending on the level and session, Adult Hebrew may include:
Adult Hebrew is typically offered in multi-week sessions that meet once a week, either in person or on Zoom, depending on the schedule and interest. Class size is kept manageable so there is time for questions and individual support.
No previous Hebrew experience is required for beginner classes. For more advanced sessions, a basic ability to recognize letters and sound out simple words is helpful but not required; we will clearly note any prerequisites when classes are announced.
We do not currently have any Adult Hebrew classes scheduled. If you are interested in participating in a future session, please email our office at [email protected]. We’ll be happy to notify you when new classes are announced.
