Emek – Hebrew Learning Program

The Magic of Emek: Where Learning Hebrew Comes to Life!

At Emek, we believe learning should be exciting, enriching, and full of connection! Our mission is to create a warm and supportive environment where students feel challenged yet comfortable, encouraged to grow, and inspired to explore the Hebrew language and Israeli culture.

What Makes Emek Special?

A Curriculum That Evolves With You!
Our innovative and carefully crafted curriculum is designed to match each student’s age and skill level. It’s constantly updated to ensure a rich, engaging learning experience—many of our materials are even authorized by Israel’s Ministry of Education!

Top-Notch Teachers & Supportive Mentors!
Our dedicated and creative teaching team designs lessons that fit each group perfectly. Plus, local youth from our community serve as teaching assistants, bringing their experience and enthusiasm to help younger students succeed.

A Learning Space That Feels Like Home!
Thanks to the amazing facilities at the Kaplen JCC, our students enjoy spacious, fully equipped classrooms, a cozy cafeteria, and a comfortable seating area for parents. It’s more than just a school—it’s a community!

Guidance From Our Passionate Leadership!
Under the expert direction of Ofir Salomon, our educational team at Emek collaborates closely with families, ensuring an enriching learning journey. We keep things fresh with regular updates, ongoing communication, and a shared vision for every child’s success.

A Year Full of Learning & Fun!
Each school year includes 32 classes, plus up to three special Emek community events that bring our learning full circle.

Stay Connected & Informed!
Parents are part of the journey too! We keep you in the loop through:
WhatsApp class groups for updates, photos, and announcements
Weekly lesson summaries and homework assignments
Mid-year teacher-parent meetings to discuss student progress

A Warm, Welcoming Atmosphere!
With an open-door policy and a homey feel in every class, Emek is a place where kids not only learn Hebrew but experience Israel in a way that shapes their Israeli, Jewish, and American identity for life.

At Emek, there’s a place for everyone!
