Learn to read in Hebrew for free.

UPDATE (2011): Found another excellent resource for learning Hebrew online for free…

I just came across the website of the National Jewish Outreach Program, which I’ve never heard of before. It seems like a great resource though, for North American Jews who want to become more affiliated and educated in their Judaism.

What caught my eye, though, was this: Read Hebrew America/Canada. The free Hebrew reading course is described as such:

READ HEBREW AMERICA/CANADA (RHA/C) is NJOP’s mega Hebrew literacy campaign to win back the hearts of North American Jews. The Annual RHA/C will take place during the months of October and November! RHA/C invites tens-of-thousands of Jewish adults into synagogues and Jewish centers throughout the United States and Canada to foster Jewish identity and create awareness about the importance of Hebrew literacy by running Hebrew Reading Crash Courses Level I or II or One Day Reviews.

If you can’t make it to learn with the course, try getting familiar with the aleph-bet on your own; there is an interactive aleph-bet to learn the Hebrew letters. If you are making aliyah soon and have absolutely no background, it might be a good idea to familiarize yourself a bit before the leap.

The site has some other great features like:

• Info about Shabbat and candle-lighting times
  
• Other courses relating to Judaism
• Send virtual postcards for Shabbat and holidays
