Join the Revolution!
Whether the setting is a day school, a summer camp, or a part-time setting, Hebrew teachers are at the heart of an excellent education. HATC began its work with this focus and adopted an approach to teaching Hebrew that focuses on developing learners’ authentic ability to function in the language in real life.
HATC continues to build upon this foundation, spreading our message through model schools, professional development intensives, advocacy and partnerships with thought leaders in a range of settings.
Today, Hebrew at the Center is a central address for supporting Hebrew language instruction and celebrating Hebrew culture, bringing together practitioners, funders, academics, committed laity and enthusiasts dedicated to promoting a love for Hebrew literacy around the world.
