The Center of Jewish Life in the Napa Valley

1-day Hebrew Boot Camp for adults

When

Saturday, January 16, 2027    
12:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Attention, recruits! Whether you’re a total beginner or you haven’t touched an Aleph since Hebrew School, this fast-paced, fun-filled afternoon will get you reading Hebrew in just one day.

Report for duty with your drill sergeants, Marah Peresechensky and Amy Hall, who promise plenty of encouragement, tasty snacks (and prizes!), and zero push-ups.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it:

• Identify and sound out all 22 letters
• Crack the code of the vowels (those mysterious dots and dashes around the letters)
• Blend sounds into syllables, and syllables into real words

By the end of the day, the Hebrew words in the prayer book (siddur) will no longer be a mystery. You’ll be reading them!

Your enlistment fee: $18, which covers materials, snacks, and prizes. Basic training has never been this fun.
