The six weeks I spent at Ulpan-Or were so wonderful. My tutor Tammy was professional and patient - but strict as well, which was what I needed to keep motivated! The rest of the staff were all great; especially Yael on reception who always had a bright smile and a friendly word. I can’t wait to [...]

Nancy Pazner - Graduate
The amount of material covered was amazing — even so, there was never enough time to do as much as I hoped. My understanding of Hebrew, and ability to appreciate what is happening around me here in Israel, was significantly enhanced.
Everybody at Ulpan Or was professional, friendly, and helpful. Thank you to all.

What a wonderful experience these last two weeks at Ulpan Or…I am so sad that it is over. Both Osnat and Noam were wonderful teachers!
