    Shalom Mazal,

     

    Thank you for teaching a great Ivrit course. 

     

    I had fun listening to the Israelis carry on conversations in Tel Aviv. 

    I need to obtain material for home study of Ivrit, and also return to Israel.

    We hope you will be able to enjoy the holidays.

    Dear Mazal,

    One of my favorite activities of the Sar-El experience was your class. I

    still think of "Ma yesh b'sal l'Mazal?" and I smile. My husband Harvey and I

    were in your class, the end of November, into December. I especially think

    of you when I peel my oranges the Israeli way!

    Several of my Temple Emunah members were

    packing medical supplies for Sar-El during

    November and December.  Just today one

    of my friends mentioned how gratifying it

    is to feel that the supplies that were sorting

    and packing are probably in Haiti right now.

    Hope all is well with you.

    Shalom u'Vracha,

    Donna B. Jauvtis

    Shalom Mazal, 
     
    Ma shlommekh?  I enjoyed very much your Hebrew classes at the base. I had a lot of fun,

     and you really brought the Hebrew language alive.

    Dear Mazal,

    Hi there, here are my pictures of you while I was trying to learn

    Hebrew. Thank you for giving me the thirst to learn Hebrew. When I

    returned to South Africa I began [learning] again. This time

    from the beginning, the alphabet.

     

    I want to return to Israel next year but this time, better armed

    with a knowledge of Hebrew behind me. 

     

    Many thanks,

      Hi Mazal,

    I want to thank you for teaching me

     more Hebrew at the base!

    Dear Mazal,

    We wanted to thank you for being a wonderful teacher! We enjoyed your lessons very much and John said he really made some progress. I told you that I am a hopeless case when it comes to languages, but I was interested in all of the information about the history and culture of Israel. Anyway, I learned the word for my favorite drink: 'Cafe-Bots.' We also very much enjoyed the songs you introduced us to.

                                                                                   Best Wishes,

                                                                                   Birgit and John
