Learn to Read Hebrew

Learn to Read Hebrew with Lani Ravin, Rabbi Aaron Philmus and Cantor Jessica Silverberg

An Introduction to Hebrew Reading for Adults

Want to begin to read Hebrew?  Want to brush up on your skills?  Join with Rabbi Aaron, Cantor Jessica and Lani Ravin to learn how to read Hebrew and in particular key words and prayers. This series will also deepen your understanding of the prayers and the Israeli cultural context.

We are planning two series:

1. An 8-week series of weekly classes for beginners.

2. A 4 to 6-week series of weekly classes for more advanced readers.

At the end of each series, students are invited to participate in a Shabbat service and help lead a prayer.

WHEN: Tuesdays at 7:30 – 8:30 PM; On Zoom; in Winter or Spring 2024/2025.

Interested?  Fill out our interest form that will help us schedule the program.

This is a project of OZ Adult Ed.
