Before making Aliyah the advisor told me, you know you can live in Jerusalem
work in English and never have to speak Hebrew...and he was right I could.
But I don't want to do that, I don't want to be like so many people I have
met that proudly say, "I have lived here for 20 years and don't speak a word
of Hebrew." I work as an English teacher, so the majority of my day is spent
speaking English, my Hebrew is what I have picked up on the way, I can get
by, order a taxi, give basic directions ( as long as the land marks contain
either traffic lights or bus stops! ) and make an appointment . Also I can
have a very meaningful Hebrew conversation with my friends language delayed
four year old , as we are both on the same level , but its about time one of
us advanced our language skills, and I guess I am the one to take the
plunge. Arriving at the stage where I am totally hindered by my lack of
Hebrew therefore , I have to move forward with my language acquisition
project! It won't be easy for me at 58, not only finding the time & energy
but also the right method of learning (My experience at ullpan was a short
lived thing ( six days ) for a variety of reasons ) However I normally rise
to a challenge ,have the motivation what's more take pleasure in
communicating with others . Knowing myself as well as I do, I know I will
get frustrated by having to remember masculine and feminine, (so much easier
if I was French) but I will not be thwarted. I will concentrate solely on
conversational Hebrew. I will learn on line with a cup of tea next to me and
my cat on my lap,(to encourage relaxation as I enter the world of the
virtual classroom.) So wish me luck, as this almost to be Safta immerse
herself in Hebrew every Sunday evening with my class at Istudyhebrew.com
