	Tammy Brown What a great course! Thank you for making Hebrew fun and easy! (Yes! I did say “easy”.) I’ve completed the “All About”, “Basic Bootcamp” lessons and “Pronunciation”. I’m now in “Absolute Beginner”. You have presented learning Hebrew in such a way that once you get a good grasp of the basics, advancing is not that difficult. I almost cried when I realized I could already “read”. Okay, a little bit, but I did read the words, even guessing at what they were by recalling the basics you’ve already given me - and got it right! With such success, you’ve got a loyal customer and I will highly recommend this course to anyone else who wants to learn modern Hebrew.
	Sharleen Harty I am a new, English-speaking migrant to Israel: during the first 5 months all migrants attend 4 hours a day of intensive (and free) Hebrew lessons. However, my 20 fellow migrant students in North Israel were entirely Russian speaking, and the teacher spoke very limited English so at the end of each day I went home with more Russian than Hebrew. I was confused at many levels by the daunting process of learning a new language through a language I did not know. Using HebrewPod101 I was able to: differentiate between the dominant Russian heard in class, versus a clearly articulated Hebrew audio track on line; cultivate a more authentic (less Russian or English) Hebrew accent using transliteration and audio playbacks; study the Hebrew written alphabet and build a small vocabulary I could use through the individual, daily words. Although I stopped attending “Hebrew-Russian” classes after 1 month, I continue to learn on-line with HebrewPod101 as as I set up a home in Israel, make friends and seek work. As such, it allows me the freedom to prioritize my day time activities, and study at night if necessary. Shalom,
	Evelyn R. I never ever thought I could learn Hebrew! Thanks to your program I am able to understand and speak some of the very basics. I am a Sunday School teacher in a Baptist church but we are aware of the chosen people of God and yearn for the knowledge and understanding of our Saviors’ language (even though He spoke others.) I praise you to Heaven for this revelation explosion! God will surely bless you mightily for all your effort in this course! God Bless,
	Ryan Allen תודה רבה Thank you so much, I am equally grateful and impressed by the efficiency of this site; it is just like being in a classroom except you can learn at your own pace and track your progress. The audio downloads and vocabulary lists are great.
	Russell Montgomery Hebrewpod101.com has helped me advance in my acquisition of Hebrew because I can make use of any idle time by accessing either their website or apps with my iPhone and iPad. I can be waiting for an appointment or an event and I can make use of that time to continue practicing Hebrew. By adding in all these bits of time I get the bonus of an extra 30 minutes or hour daily and this has greatly increased my vocabulary and understanding of the language.

	Jonathan Lovelace I’ve been studying Hebrew less than half a year, and only four months into HebrewPod101’s Premium package and already had a small conversation with an Israeli. It’s true a little Hebrew goes a long way. A young gentlemen from Tel Aviv and his friend were selling Dead Sea products at a shopping mall in the United States. When I mentioned I was studying Hebrew and was able to speak small sentences to them, their faces lit up with smiles. (As well as mine for being able to communicate) These two acquaintances became more like friends in just a few moments. I have a trip planned later this year to go to Israel, and excited to try even more Hebrew by then. I also use the mobile version of HebrewPod101 Premium edition while doing daily tasks. I can listen to short audio dialogues and read the lesson pdf notes all from my phone. It’s great for on the go or sitting at home and studying. I’m glad I purchased and have already thought about renewing after my two years. If you don’t live in Israel or even if you do, HebrewPod101 gives real life teachings that help you in everyday life situations.
	Steven Ghandehari I just recently started using HebrewPod101’s Premium service and already I have been able to start speaking to my Hebrew friends in Hebrew. It is a GREAT feeling to learn something new and out of the 4 or 5 different language programs I have used I have to say that these are the best! I also got the Russian Complete language course from the InnovativeLanguage.com store and I am learning that side by side with the Hebrew. If you are looking for courses that really lead to success then you are at the right place!
	Y.G. My parents are Israeli but I was adopted at birth and only recently reconnected with my birth family. Learning Hebrew was an absolute necessity and I had many sources, books, audiobooks, vocab lists and some great websites to study Hebrew. But I must say I really liked the team here at HebrewPod101. Since I had no connections to Israeli or Jewish culture in the past, the cultural bits were great and I now know more about Israeli culture than the average Israeli I guess. A lot of the language you learn here is really colloquial so it’s great for those who want to practice speaking. I love the fact that the videos here are accurate and complete and give a lot of context, both semantic and cultural. A lot of the videos are really funny and I love both Idit and Yaara’s sense of humor.
