Most everyone is familiar with this day, as it is celebrated nearly everywhere the world. Yet, when exactly is April Fools’ Day? And where did April Fools come from? April Fools’ Day is observed on April 1st every year.

They were referred to as the “April Fools”, and others started playing mocking tricks on them. This custom endured, and is practiced to this day... Show more

However the reality is that mistakes are unavoidable. I’d even go so far as to say that they’re an integral part of the learning process. But still we try are hardest to fight them, thinking that perhaps the key to learning rests in the flashiest method or the LiveFluent Hebrew course or HebrewPod101. Think of small children who are just starting to learn English. They mispronounce words. They use words incorrectly, and their grammar is usually pretty... Show more
