Colloquial Hebrew aims to teach Hebrew as it is spoken in Israel today, to give you a level of competence to be able to travel around and to converse generally on a range of topics. Being able to read menus, road signs, posters, brochures as well as to catch snippets of conversations, are part and parcel of this competence. It will help you to understand, be understood and to feel more a part of what is going on around you.
