I've started learning Hebrew to remind myself what it's like to be a total beginner again at something and do some reasearch into what language learning strategies can be recommended to language learners. I had my first conversation in Hebrew today and even though it's my fourth language to study, it's always a bit terrifying the first time you try to communicate. If it's not a bit stressful or embarrasing, you know you probably aren't learning much. ;)

 

Most of the Hebrew study I have learned has been on public transport, because I've got a full time job with complicated hours. The thought of losing two hours a day everday on public transport greatly bothered me. Thus, I decided to experiment a bit and try something new, which was to take that idle time and try to learn something that didn't necessarily require undivided concentration. 

 

Anyway, my advice... learn how to recognize the Hebrew alphabet and nikud system, but as far as reading and writing go, do you want to speak or do you want to read books and write letters? I am focusing mostly on speaking, listening, and pronunciation. Writing I will revist later at a later time. 

 

Good luck! - From another suffering Hebrew beginner!

Hi Joe.

 

The main way to improve your level is listening to podcasts (which you have their transcription) and start talking with a native speaker, or with a person who speaks well. 

 

Don't worry, at the begining it's gonna be difficult. but don't give up! it may sound to you very fast, and when you'll speak you will stammer alot at the begining. but you'll get better wuith time. it's only a question of hard work and preseverance.

 

Here is a website of podcasts in hebrew, take a look. maybe it could help you.

Good luck,

   Hi:

 

 May I suggest that you learn by singing some Hebrew Songs? "Shalom Aleichem"

 would be a good one to start with.
