Orna Zalmanov, MA
"Excellent teacher, great atmosphere in class, well structured manual….easy to learn ( just to take the time and study😊)"
"My experience so far is very good. I enjoy my learning experience very much. All the services you provide are excellent and every student has the opportunity to prepare for the next lesson and get aquainted with the material beforehand. I don't want to judge wrongly, but can a teacher decide, when a student is most probably in the wrong class? I ask this, because some students are prepared before the class and others are not. I would recommend Rosen School of Hebrew to my friends, it is a great experience to learn Hebrew."
"Very easy to access, enjoyable staff and students. We're all here to learn and to broaden our existing skill sets. Therein, this is a very friendly environment where, as students are all participating equally (Teacher prompted ;); we all get to learn from listening to each others struggles and facilitative responses. This provides an environment where our limitations are identified as opportunities .... and learning ensues. "
