MAKING HEBREW learnING FUN!

Yafit was born in Los Angeles and raised in Israel since she was 2 years old. She relocated back to LA, following her Israel Defense Force service, to fulfill her dream of becoming an actress and earned her BA at USC School of Theatre. While in school, Yafit discovered her passion for teaching when she became a Hebrew and Judaic Studies teacher at Jewish schools around LA, such as Sinai Akiba Academy, Wilshire Blvd Temple, Adat Shalom and Kehillat Ma'arav. She also had a successful one woman show called “New Eyes” about her experience as an Israeli in the US that ran for 5 years and performed all over the country with rave reviews. 

Yafit has 15 years of experience teaching students of all ages and skill levels. She brings all her past experiences to create fun, engaging and creative lessons. Her teaching style is very playful and experiential. In her lessons, she incorporates Hebrew board games from Israel, card games, hands-on activities, arts & crafts and many more creative games she created in her 15 years of teaching. Yafit is also a mother of 3 young boys, ages 3, 5 and 7, who keep her busy and full of energy.
