What do learners say?
“There is not a semester that goes by that I am not signed up for Hebrew with Henie. She is a beloved teacher. Her classes are wonderful! She is patient, understanding and brings the Hebrew language to life each and every week. I love learning with Henie and the best part is my Hebrew is getting better and better!”
“I started with Henie in beginning Hebrew and now I am in the Advanced class. I never imagined I would be able to speak and understand Hebrew as well as I do. Henie has increased my confidence and most of all, my love for learning this special language. I never miss a week of Hebrew with Henie!”

What do learners say?
“Marc Lamb’s courses exceed my expectations. The topics are always interesting and very fun. He does a great job of weaving text, audio visuals and discussion into the learning experience. The material is fascinating and makes me think long after the class is over!”
“Learning about the American Jewish experience through film has been an eye-opening experience. The films, the conversation and the traditional Jewish texts bring new meaning to the Jewish historical narrative. I look forward to the next opportunity to learn with Marc.”
