Over 7 years of teaching experience to every level. Patient, supportive and let's get started ! Native Chinese speaker and Hebrew professor at Tel-Aviv University—I specialize in transforming absolute beginners (especially fellow Chinese speakers!) into fluent Hebrew communicators. With 11 languages under my belt, I blend linguistic precision and cultural insights to make lessons click across borders. Dubbed "the confidence architect," I turn stumbles into breakthroughs with patience and tailored methods. Let’s build your Hebrew intuition, one joyful lesson at a time. I teach Hebrew from the alphabet to very advanced in terms of vocabulary, grammar, diction, and idioms. I can help you improve your pronunciation as my accent and way of conversing is natural. I will speak to you slowly in a calm and welcoming tone. All my classes are specific are tailored to each student's needs. I care about your personality, and ways of learning. I adjust to your specific requirements and states of mind. I am a very open-minded person I like talking about psychology, history, anthropology, cross-cultural exchanges, and so on. I mainly teach to adults and I have over five years of experience to a variety of nationalities. I provide all the materials and can give you homework assignments. I will take notes during each lesson so you can review vocabulary. I offer classes to every level so it doesn't matter if you are totally new to Hebrew. I am a very concrete self-confidence builder and am quite able to guide you through the different levels of comprehension during the lessons....

From the very first lesson, I could feel how dedicated and thoughtful this teacher is. The course is well-paced and requires some preparation beforehand — starting from basic vocabulary and building toward practical sentence patterns, with a strong emphasis on pronunciation. Students can start speaking and gain confidence quickly. He adapts to each student’s level in real time, which makes every lesson efficient and targeted. If you’re serious about learning Hebrew, this is an excellent place to start.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ 第一堂課就感受到老師的認真與用心。課程節奏清晰,課前需要準備,從基礎詞彙到實用句型,特別著重發音,學生很快就能開口說話、建立信心。老師會根據學生的程度即時調整內容,讓學習效率很高。如果你想認真學希伯來文,跟Tzuf老師合作是很好的起點。

Gerade habe ich mich wieder eine wunderbare Stunde mit Tzuf gehabt. Und ich geh beschwingt in den Abend. Inzwischen lerne ich mit Tzuf seit zehn Monaten hebräisch. Dank ihm bin ich immer dran geblieben, trotz vieler Momente, in denen ich mich gefragt habe, ob ich dabei bleibe. Seine offene und bestärkende Seite wie sein Humor haben mich durch so manche Frustration getragen. Auch seine Bereitschaft, jede meiner Hausaufgaben zu korrigieren, ist eine große Hilfe für mich. Herzlichen Dank!

This was our first lesson with Tzuf. Very helpful! Our conversation was engaging, and we appreciated Tzuf's willingness to correct our Hebrew just enough throughout. All the words that we didn't know and reached for during the conversation he added to the chat, and we were able to download our newly created vocabulary. He would check for understanding as we progressed.

Tzuf brings to his lessons great atmosphere, engaging materials and plenty of practice! I felt some progress already after my first class, and realized how much I need to learn even before that, when Tzuf reviewed my intro homework. Very helpful and recommend to anyone with serious attitude and intention

I had a great first lesson with Tzuf. He proposed how to structure lessons based on my learning goals, and he thoroughly explained why the plan he suggested is the most efficient way to achieve my goals. It was easy to understand Tzuf and he helped me understand the phrases or words that he noticed I did not understand, and what's important to me - he mostly didn't use English but rather explained in Hebrew. Tzuf gave me homework that I look forward to doing and shared extra material. Thank you Tzuf
