ע 👁️🩵Letter of Love

הערב ט״ו באב.
ובזמן שכולם מאחלים אהבה, בא לנו להראות לכם איפה היא מסתתרת. באות אחת.

תסתכלו רגע על האות ע.
זוג עיניים למעלה, דמעה קטנה שיורדת אל המרכז, ולב בדיוק באמצע.
לא במקרה ע היא האות של ראיית העומק. של היכולת לראות מעבר לפני השטח, אל מה שבאמת נמצא שם.

וזו בדיוק אהבה טובה. לא זו שרואה יפה, אלא זו שרואה לעומק.

זה מה שאנחנו אוהבים באותיות העבריות. שכל אחת מספרת סיפור, אם רק עוצרים להסתכל.

ט״ו באב שמח, מכל הלב🧡

Looking to improve your Hebrew?

I offer private online Hebrew lessons for all levels - from complete beginners to advanced learners.
For the month of April, I’m offering a free introductory lesson (no cost, no obligation), so you can see if it’s a good fit.
I’ve taught Hebrew at leading universities and specialize in interactive, communicative teaching. My lessons include a variety of materials - including games, music, and real-life content - and are always tailored to each learner’s goals and needs.
If you’ve been thinking about starting - this is a great time.

I’ve been quiet here for a while, I know. Work had me moving between three continents, and due to the extreme (professional) climate changes in the US - I decided it was time to move on. A lot has shifted since my last update, both in my own life and in my homeland Israel, which continues to face multidimensional threats.

I’ve continued teaching Hebrew throughout all of this in universities, and I also initiated a PD group with more than 200 Hebrew teachers from around the world, alongside several other projects I’m involved in.

I’m now based in Europe, finalizing my visa and opening new availability for private lessons and small online groups. My website with all the details is in the first comment.

If you’d like to support my work, feel free to tap 👍 (or ❤️). And if you know someone who’s interested in learning Hebrew, I’d be grateful if you could recommend me to them.

תודה רבה,
נועם
