Bio
Brian Abrams
Joel is a terrific teacher! He has done an excellent job building my vocabulary with weekly lists of new words, audio clips and videos. Then, the lesson itself is completely centered on spoken Hebrew. Right from the beginning, I was speaking in full sentences and now I'm able to get around Israel using only Hebrew. I look forward to continuing to study with Joel until I achieve fluency. I highly recommend him!
Richard Hartzman
I always looked forward to my sessions with Joel. He has a talent for making complex material understandable and transparent, and doing so in a way which makes it come alive. He brings out structure in the material and communicates it clearly. Learning with him was not a task, but a journey in which I was led to draw conclusions and see the material as a coherent whole. I gained much insight and understanding during my studying with Joel, and significantly improved my skills.
