L'shalom, safranim I figure out there is someone who is able to provide advice for an adult student (namely me) who wants to improve her Hebrew. I can read script (Biblical) - but do not speak it. I will have folks to speak with around here, and am interested mostly in improving reading - but I figure speaking the language can't hurt...I recently did my first Torah reading and loved it.
Is it better to study in a US intensive class - eg something like Brandeis or Middlebury or others? do ? or better to find an ulpan and spend a month or two in Israel (obviously - I don't think I'm going to become fluent overnight.) No - can't leave and just spend a year in Israel...wish I could! (Unless you know of an incredible fellowship program....)
