This is so good! I am an English teacher who became a French teacher and now want to learn Hebrew.

[ritamartinez]

Short, precise explanations. Perfect for beginners. Toda raba.

Wow spent 5 minutes practicing the first five letters memorizing the shape and the sound and learned to have one sound like the other i practiced the words you gave and found myself actually being able to sound out the words and practice them this is awesome i hope it stays this easy haha heres to step 1

Amazing way to learn - simple, fun, and most effective. Thank you

The jokes and the connotations in the video (such as the one about the transportation with camels) made me very happy.

I had a formal course in Hebrew back in the 1980s to learn biblical Hebrew. I've continued to use it over the years with my bible study and I'm nearly ready for more consistent training. I'll subscribe to the recommended newspaper at the beginning of the new year. It sounds like a very unique tool!

Your site is crazy good. I've been tearing my heart out all semester at my inability to grasp Hebrew. I know the letters, but when I try to read the words I get brain freeze. It was the nikud that had me stumped. You made that so very easy. We're using the CLSeow book. It's awful and really not the way for beginners to learn a language at any Level. Thank YHWH for YouTube. Don't know what I would do without ways of learning that makes sense. Blessings to you!!!

So students and regular people normally write the letters the way you showed on the lined paper, not with flowing calligraphy pens or quills? I thought I was going to have to buy some of those. The calligraphy is beautiful. But a relief if we can write that simple way.

Excuse me for pointing out that the character you used when mentioning “chinese” is actually Vietnamese. .... and 希伯来文一点也不像中文… and this means Hebrew letters don’t look like Chinese at all :)

[ronaldcalandra]

A+ Easy to read letters.Fun learning for all ages . Thank You .

I have been learning Korean for long enough that I have been "unprofessionally" teaching beginners Korean.
I just love how there are so many similarities between Korean and Hebrew as well as English and Hebrew. Not to mention that Korean is only about 600 years old and the traits carried over from Chinese still cause similarities! So I have to wonder if there are many similarities between Chinese and Hebrew as well!
Also English is a Germanic language. So like with Korean and Chinese I have to wonder if Germanic has similarities with Hebrew.
Do all languages lead back to ancient Hebrew? It seems I've learned from some Human Languages and Anthropology scholars that they do.
Anyway really interesting and wonderful. 👍🏻

Just been watching a video about Hebrew letters by a rabbi. He says the aleph by itself is silent. It is only when it has a line underneath it that it sounds like A. Also, if it has two dots underneath it it sounds like EY.

The music makes it difficult for me to hear the Hebrew clearly.

[reyringor]

Please include the transliteration of the letters of hebrew to english like ani which is I in english. Its hard for beginners like me to learn without the translation.toda raba.

[stargayzer-piyo]

hello, i am learning hebrew as part of my conversion to judaism. i understand and remember the first five letters now but i have a question. is alef not considered a vowel like A is in the latin alphabet? what makes it not a vowel?

[adekanyedavid]

Great material. The initial decorations of the letters and the final way it was written are confusing.

[jonossen]

I was so excited to share this as review with my class but... an ALEF does not make an /a/ sound and I noticed that you differentiate between the PEY and the FEY but not the BET and the VET. I am rather confused...

[digital-activity]

Good video except for one thing: the way the letters are written and TYPED are differed. And in video the letters are typed, not written. Good to know everybody who is trying to learn from this playlist.

[Dan-sclq]

Ty. Others try to do all the letters at once and that is too much. Good teacher.
