APPS

Shalom Hebrew

For decoding learning and fun reinforcement, Shalom Hebrew is an app that takes language practice on the go - anywhere, anytime. Built on a foundation of key cultural words, such as mitzvah and shamash, Shalom Hebrew introduces related letters, vowels, syllables and words, with plenty of practice opportunities. Users see Hebrew and hear the sounds of letters, vowels and syllables. They can also record themselves reading and play back the recording, and compare their pronounciation to both Israeli and American voices.

Created as a universal app, it can be used on any PC or Mac desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone. Sample the first five lessons FREE by visiting the app store or Google play and downloading Shalom Hebrew directly to any iPhone, iPad, or Android device.
