The Full Story
Shalom!
I'm Tamar, a 37-year-old mother to Lenny and Liam, and the partner of Barak. For the past six years, our family has been basking in the serene beauty of Portugal, where time moves at a more leisurely pace, allowing us to truly savor each moment and connect deeply with the rhythm of life.
In addition to being a dedicated mother and partner, I am also a speech therapist, Hebrew teacher, Hatha Yoga teacher, and mindfulness practitioner. My journey into language and communication began at a young age, fueled by a desire to bridge gaps and foster understanding among people. This passion led me to pursue a career where I could help others unlock the power of language and connect with each other on a deeper level.
Drawing inspiration from the way infants effortlessly absorb language, I have developed a unique teaching system that encourages my students to tap into their innate abilities. Whether you're learning Hebrew as a beginner or seeking to deepen your understanding of the language, my approach goes beyond mere words and grammar. In my classes, you'll find an atmosphere infused with warmth and love, where students feel empowered to explore and express themselves freely.
As a speech therapist, I also offer expertise in accent reduction, helping you refine your pronunciation and communication skills. Whether you're looking to improve your Hebrew fluency, cultivate mindfulness through the process of learning, or refine your speech, I am here to support you on your journey towards greater connection and understanding. Together, let's embark on a path of growth, learning, and profound appreciation for language and culture.

"Tamar is an exceptional teacher! She is very good at making interesting conversation at your current level, we had great conversation even though my vocabulary is extremely limited. She also does the best thing a language teacher can do—she could sense when I was thinking through something, and let me take my time using the words I *do* know to express a thought.
I was trying to figure out how to conjugate a verb, and she told me other verbs that are like it, which is great because it lets me really internalize patterns in Hebrew."
