Debbie is an excellent teacher. She is a patient, kind and considerate teacher and is a terrific motivator. In the time that I have known her, it is clear that, as a native speaker, she not only has tremendous talent but also really cares about her students. 10/10!!

Debbie was very friendly to me and agreed to help me study in college, although the topics were quite complex and not part of the usual list of subjects for classes. She also agreed to use my materials instead of her own and sent me something to help with reading.

Debbi is a wonderful teacher! My daughter truly enjoys her lessons and always looks forward to them. Each class is engaging and varied — Debbi not only teaches the language but also introduces Israeli culture, traditions, and holidays, which makes learning even more meaningful. I especially appreciate that she uses songs and fun activities in her teaching. Highly recommended!
