This video shows some of the tools that I currently use to teach Hebrew to my private tutoring students. We have a lot of fun together!
I have also done a lot of Jewish arts-and-crafting with a variety of students and young assistants. Some of that is shared in the images below. (Click on the thumbnails to see the full images.)
