I think that is an excellant idea! I really should learn hebrew and doing some sort of online club sounds perfect! Anyone want to do this? Organize this? Ideas?

mord · « **Reply #1 on:** July 30, 2007, 12:32:02 PM »

I know Heb pretty good

Yisrael · « **Reply #2 on:** July 30, 2007, 12:38:27 PM »

same here

Ehud · « **Reply #3 on:** July 30, 2007, 12:39:07 PM »

I would join it for sure. The member Dexter has already taught me lots of Hebrew and he LOVES to teach Hebrew, he thinks it's fun. He could join the group and teach us Hebrew because his English skills are good enough. I'll let him know and see what he thinks about this idea.

Dr. Dan · « **Reply #4 on:** July 30, 2007, 12:41:26 PM »

if a hebrew teaching club beings, please let me know. I would like to also learn conversational Hebrew and learn how to read and write better as well.

So far I can read Hebrew well with the vowels, and can form a few sentences. That's about it.

Ehud · « **Reply #5 on:** July 30, 2007, 12:44:56 PM »

I'm pretty much where you're at dannycookie. I know lots of words but I don't know the structure well at all.

Shoshana · « **Reply #6 on:** July 30, 2007, 12:50:17 PM »

I really know very little. Prayers and stuff is about as far as I get. I am really starting from scratch here.

Ehud · « **Reply #7 on:** July 30, 2007, 12:53:04 PM »

Not to worry Shoshana, we've all gotta start somewhere.

I think that there are plenty of people on here who are at nearly the same level of Hebrew so this would probably work out really great!

DownwithIslam · « **Reply #8 on:** July 30, 2007, 01:02:33 PM »

I also know very little hebrew and want to learn. Where was dexter teaching hebrew, I would of loved to listen in on his lesson.

Ehud · « **Reply #9 on:** July 30, 2007, 01:06:28 PM »

It was over instant messaging sessions. He's a master of Hebrew.

Dr. Dan · « **Reply #10 on:** July 30, 2007, 01:10:10 PM »

if the instant messaging is over AIM (aol), mine is obviously dannycookie57.

Ehud · « **Reply #11 on:** July 30, 2007, 01:13:30 PM »

No, he doesn't have AIM. One good option for us would be the program Skype. It's free and we could set up group chat rooms as well as group voice chat rooms where all of us would be able to speak to each other in a virtual "classroom". It works with Hebrew so we could work on our spelling and writing and vocab in the typing chat rooms, and our pronunciation and speaking in the voice chat room. I also believe that there is a way to do a combination of both voice and text.

It might be a hassle though for everyone to find a time where we can all get on Skype together.
Good idea though we'll have to figure all this out.
I don't have AIM either.

I'm in Europe. I would also like to join the Hebrew club if some common time could be found.

I speak Hebrew fluently and used to live in Israel for 3 years. I was there a total of 18 times.

Wow Yacov, you've outdone me, I think I've (only) been there around 10 times. Are you saying that you'll be available some time to help tutor people?

DownwithIslam · « **Reply #18 on:** July 30, 2007, 11:16:28 PM »

Vito I am embarrased that you speak hebrew so much better than me. I am jealous. I hope someone organizes this because I will surely attend.

Vito · « **Reply #19 on:** July 30, 2007, 11:23:46 PM »

Oh no need to be jealous, my Hebrew isn't so good, but thanks for the compliment:) Don't worry.. with your brains you'll learn Hebrew in no time!

Haha that's what I was thinking too. These folks in here already speak more hebrew than me!

Awesome idea!

Dr. Dan · « **Reply #22 on:** July 31, 2007, 07:46:05 AM »

why don't we set a time on the jtf chat? I'm not sure how the class coudl be tought...

OR why not match partners..one that knows Hebrew really well and another that doesn't really konw much.

OR

Why dont' we list everyone's ability to the following categories:

1. Don't know squat
2. I'm ok at reading Hebrew with vowels but need more practice
3. I can read Hebrew with the vowels but struggle without them
4. I can read but dont' understand a single word
5. I can understand a little bit, but i want to learn more
6. I can speak Hebrew and perhaps read it too.

I'm category #3. So i can help anyone in category 1 and 2.

For whatever reason Java won't download on my computer. I have a new windows Vista and I'm not sure why this is so if yall do chat I won't be able to do it that way. The partner idea is a fine idea. Or we someone who speaks hebrew well could start out with the basics and send it in a group email.
My level of ability is 1.

newman · « **Reply #24 on:** July 31, 2007, 09:56:13 AM »

I have the same problem. There is a version of Java that's supposed to work for my system.....but it won't download either. It's infuriating.
