  Internet aids in teaching the language;

  and will instill democratic values and knowledge of the country's institutions.
  

Study Program:

The program comprises of two types of modular courses: Basic courses (mandatory courses); And enrichment courses (electives).

Two main aspects are highlighted in all courses: The theoretical aspect and the practical (didactic) one. The required assignments during the course are designed to assist in practicing the teaching material.

Upon successful completion of eight courses – six mandatory courses plus two enrichment courses (thereby accumulating eight credit points – the equivalent of 224 study hours) and fulfillment of the requirements of the practicum, the student will be eligible to receive a specialization certificate in the didactics of Teaching Hebrew as a Foreign Language from The MOFET Institute's Online Academy. ​
