I just happened upon this list, thought might be someone out there interested in some extra work. I would like to find an American in Ashkleon (or very very close to Ashkelon) that knows how to teach english to small kids.
I am looking for something more serious than the Helen Doron chugimI am married to an Israeli, and I try to speak only english with my kids, but they still answer me in Hebrew (except for when they were in the States for two months about a year ago, I got a significant period of english out of them, but it faded fast upon our return from vacation) I think they have a pretty good understanding level, and the older one can fire back a pretty good vocabulary of one worders if you point at things, but still not comfortable with actually talking to english to me. I have to admit that I have not been diligent about speaking only english, I break into hebrew much more than I should be. I want to speak only english with them, and I apparently need some help to get over this hump. I would hope to do it a 2 or 3 times a week, for say an hour in the afternoon, but am open to suggestions of how and what to do. I would like it to be fun for them, and perhaps I would participate, as something the three of us get to all do together (just an idea).
