Certified teacher of Hebrew with over 7 years of experience - students of all levels are welcome. Shalom! My name is Maoz (מעוז). I'm a certified teacher of Hebrew as a foreign language and have been teaching here for quite a while now. I'm passionate (some might say obsessive) about languages and history, though I'm generally curious about pretty much anything and am glad to talk about any topic. I'm fond of etymology and the roots of words, and learning languages myself has taught me a few tricks over the years concerning language acquisition. I enjoy sharing and making use of my experience in order to help you along your road with Hebrew. Insegno anche molto volentieri in italiano! I structure my lessons based on the student's needs and can adjust to the student's level of knowledge. Having a thorough understanding of the rules and structure of the language, I am comfortable explaining them both with and without all the complex grammatical terminology. Very often when we learn a new language we hit some hard points, for example when we don't understand why a certain sentence is phrased in a certain manner, or why one word is used rather than the other. I'm more than prepared to help simplify all those things and make the learning process easier. I like to work on all aspects of language acquisition, including ones often neglected, such as pronunciation and intonation, how to remember difficult words more efficiently, colloquial language and more. I use a variety of textbooks (the classic ones used in Ulpan classes in Israel) together with my own exercises and, f...

Maoz is an incredible Hebrew teacher who goes above and beyond to ensure his students truly understand every aspect of the language. He is always extremely prepared for each lesson, presenting material in a clear and structured way that makes learning both effective and enjoyable. His ability to tailor his teaching to my level has made a huge difference in my progress, and his encouragement keeps me motivated every step of the way. If you’re looking to learn Hebrew with a knowledgeable, patient, and supportive teacher, I highly recommend Maoz!

Maoz is a great Hebrew teacher. I have learned so much from him in the year that we worked together. He has excellent materials and is the most patient teacher that I have ever had. He has a well-thought-out system for teaching you Hebrew in a manageable way. He is the easiest person for me to speak Hebrew with. His method is very practical. He gives you good homework and it has helped me progress much faster because of it.

Each week, Maoz gives me practice, and then we begin each lesson with what I was supposed to practice from our last class. He is patient even when I am not prepared for our class. We review what I was supposed to review, and he offers me the choice of adding it to the next class or moving on. He is very intentional in making sure I've learned - and not just memorized - which can become a habit when you're in seminary.

Maoz has been teaching me for almost a year now. He is an extraordinarily skilled language instructor with exceptional teaching skills, a wide breadth of knowledge, unusual intelligence (although he dislikes wearing this badge), the ability to adapt content to our - student - needs, and he has the patience of Job. He has the ability to make the complex simple... all in the target language, in Hebrew.

I really enjoyed my first lesson with Maoz. We spent a large part of the lesson speaking in Hebrew, and he created a very calm and encouraging atmosphere that made it easy to keep trying and speaking, even when I made mistakes. He corrected me when needed and explained things clearly and patiently. We also worked on verb structures and I especially appreciated how he adapted the lesson to what came up naturally. I’m looking forward to continuing!

Maoz continues to be an excellent teacher. Not only does he bring new materials to each lesson, but he also incorporates the book I used in my seminary classes. He is patient, encouraging, and very knowledgeable about the history and etymology of not just Hebrew words, but also Italian. He is an excellent teacher and I recommend him highly.
