4.0 out of 5 stars Nice book, October 8, 2008

AZChip (Arizona) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Hebrew Primer (Paperback)

My Hebrew tutor used this book as a text. It is a decent text, and easy to follow. It teaches the alphabet and basic words at a nice pace. However, it doesn't stand alone -- you will need a Hebrew class, or a tape, to go with the book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good starter Hebrew for kids, January 24, 2011

Sharon Scott (Sedona, AZ United States) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Hebrew Primer (Paperback)

This book is very good for young children just starting out in Hebrew. I teach at the local synagogue and found this book to be very useful for my 6, 7 & 8 year olds. It challenges them and gets slowly harder as the book progresses. I'd definitely recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for group study
This is a fun book for child or adult classroom study. We use it for the kids and adults. This book isn't for self study as it doesn't tell the sounds the letters or the vowels... Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars unhelpful
This book does not offer much to beginners of Hebrew, although it is entitled "primer". It is not detailed enough and one can get easily lost.

So far, I have selected only this book for teaching the BEGINNER HEBREW CLASS. It is the best for learning the Hebrew characters and vowels...

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for learning alephbet
I learned alephbet, and to read Hebrew with this book. I now teach it. It is very user friendly for all ages. You will need someone to tell you how to pronounce the letters.
