Recent Olim (Immigrants) Learn Hebrew Through Ulpan

The Hebrew language program for new Israelis include five hours of intensive, immersive Hebrew-language instruction, five days a week for five months. The instructors, certified by the Ministry of Education, weave together a variety of techniques to help students improve their skills, including field trips and units on Israeli culture to enhance the learning experience.
