MTA Talmidim Partner With Israeli Author

MTA’s “Meet The Israeli Author” elective course for juniors provides talmidim with the opportunity to work directly with award-winning Israeli author Chana Bat Shachar, via video-conference workshops conducted entirely in Hebrew. The course, created by Director of Hebrew Language Mrs. Rosenberg, is in its 14th year and is unique to MTA.

This one-of-a-kind experience enables talmidim to not only develop their creative writing skills, but also to cultivate their Hebrew language skills on a higher level. Under the mentorship of award-winning Hebrew Language Instructor Liora Haibi, talmidim work on crafting short stories written exclusively in Hebrew and participate in the monthly video-conference workshops with Ms. Bat Shachar.

Each workshop focuses on a different element of story writing development. Talmidim come prepared to the workshops with segments of the stories they are writing that correspond with the monthly topic. Ms. Bat Shachar provides constructive critiques on each talmid’s work, allowing them to reshape their stories based on her expert feedback. The course culminates with the printing of the completed stories in a journal.
