Throughout this Yiddish crash course for beginners, you will leave class every day able to have a new short conversation with your classmates entirely in Yiddish. Learn how to introduce yourself, talk about what you do each day of the week, count various items, and sing some simple Yiddish songs with
Asya Vaisman Schulman of the Yiddish Book Center. Asya will be teaching a brand new curriculum from her newly-published textbook
In eynem. This engaging and dynamic four-class workshop aims to make Yiddish accessible for students of all ages. No prior Yiddish knowledge necessary-- even complete beginners will be able to follow! The class will also introduce students to reading and writing in the
alef-beys. Yiddish language classes will be hybrid with participants on-site and online. Online attendees should anticipate a slightly less participatory experience in full class situations and to participate fully in breakout rooms. YNY tech volunteers will help to navigate these shared spaces and facilitate breakout rooms. We appreciate your patience as we learn together!
