Neta Hebrew

'Lama'NETA is a Hebrew language curriculum for students created by curriculum specialists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. NETA is funded by The AVI CHAI Foundation and partnered with the Hebrew College in Newton Centre, Massachusetts.^[1] NETA is currently being used by over 90 schools in the United States, Canada, Australia, and the former Soviet Union, and provides training for Hebrew-as-a-second-language teachers as well as curriculum, teaching materials, assessment tools, and mentoring for teachers.^[2] Research conducted at the Jewish Theological Seminary of America casts serious doubt on NETA's effectiveness as a Hebrew teaching tool for all students. The research shows that it is especially ineffective for students with learning disabilities.^[3]
