André Felipe Cunha Vieira, M.A
"A excelência dos professores, a didática trabalhada por eles e os materiais de estudo, certamente são diferenciais que elevam a aprendizagem otimizando a compreensão do idioma deixando aquele gostinho de quero mais o final de cada aula."
"The course is very good. Professor André Cunha is amazing and has a lot of knowledge about the Hebrew language. It is a privilege to study with him. Since we learned the cantillations in C, the course should include all the texts after the unit with accents and cantillations, because in addition to better consolidating what was taught, it makes reading easier."
"Gosto imensamente de todos os cursos que já fiz e estou fazendo no eTeacherGroup! O conteúdo, os professores, a plataforma... Espero que D'us me conceda anos de vida mais para poder continuar a estudar aqui! Obrigada!!!"

A Few Words About Me

“If I am not for myself, who is for me? And if I am just for myself, what am I? And if not now, when?” Hillel – Pirke Avot 1:14

André is a religious carioca Jew and is passionate about research and teaching. One of the things that motivates him most is the challenge of finding new ways to teach and help others gain knowledge. As a Hebrew teacher, he likes to discuss and present solutions to current translation problems from the perspective of professional and religious ethics. André makes use of his theoretical and practical framework of linguistic theories to offer possible alternatives for learning and interpreting the biblical text.
