Ambassadors to Israel from all over the world filled the new auditorium at the Sheraton Hotel in Tel Aviv last Thursday to participate in a special “Hebrew Taster and Israeli Culture” event hosted by Ulpan-Or and The Ambassadors’ Club. This event, the first of its kind for Ambassadors gave the diplomats a unique opportunity to actively engage in speaking Hebrew with Ulpan-Or’s revolutionary RLA (Rapid Language Acquisition) method and experience Israeli culture with wine tasting from Recanati winery, and cheese tasting by Jacob’s dairy company.

After just one hour of experiencing Hebrew, the diplomats were able to engage in a simple conversation in Hebrew, ask for directions, order wine and cheese and even perform in a few dialogues in front of the distinguished audience.

On one hand the Ambassadors learned how to officially present themselves in Hebrew and how loosen up and use some slang words such as “SABABA ” סבבה “Cool” on the other. It was our tremendous pleasure at Ulpan-Or to jointly host this event with the Ambassadors’ club, headed by Mr. Yitzhak Eldan. This “Hebrew Taster” event for world Ambassadors to Israel has provided a great opportunity for us at Ulpan-Or in fulfilling our mission of being the Ambassadors of Hebrew to the world.
