    Excellent Resource
    I listen to each episode five or six times in a row. My only wish would be for each episode to be a bit longer with more examples.

  • listening from baltimore
    Love it!!!
    The episodes are relevant to the current situation and he has helped to explain words being used during the war. I absolutely love listening to Guy talk about each root word and all the variations of it. It’s a great way to learn new Hebrew words, to listen to Hebrew being spoken and to hear amazing and beautiful Israeli music, which often he uses as examples of the usage of the featured words. I listen as often as I can!

    A Wonderful and Helpful Show!
    I listen to Streetwise Hebrew+ to improve my Hebrew and challenge me to learn new words and phrases. I lived in Israel for two years and have certainly plateaued. This podcast and its resources are helping a great deal.

    The podcast I simply can’t miss
    Listening to Streetwise Hebrew everyday is such fun. It has become a part of my life and I love every second of it. Guy is so smart and entertaining and well informed about both the language and the culture of Israel. I often listen to the podcast several times during the week, sometimes repeating the sentences, sometimes concentrating on the new verbs, sometimes just trying to speak the Hebrew with a decent accent. Having the transcript is a huge plus, as is the links to other related podcasts and of course the songs and commercials and videos he references. So grateful to Guy and TLV1.

    I LOVE this podcast!! It has helped my Hebrew so much. Guy is warm, brilliant, charming and creative. I feel like he’s my personal friend. He covers so many subjects and gives us so much in 7 minutes. It moves fast and includes culture, grammar, songs and so much more. It’s always interesting and moves quickly, you’ll never be bored for even a moment. Avail yourself!

    Fun, interesting and useful
    This is one of the best Hebrew podcasts out there. I love hearing native speakers on the streets, and also learning so much about the culture. Highly recommended!
  • Atzmauta
    Learning Hebrew is Fun with Guy
    As a native Hebrew speaker who left Israel at a young age, this podcast has filled in many blanks in my mind about usage and colloquialisms so that now I have the confidence to understand “between the lines” when I visit. Your latest episode on Panim was a brilliant amalgam of old and new idioms for frequently used phrases. Genius!

  • barvazyarok
    One of the best Hebrew learning podcasts
    I’ve loved this podcast for the past ~10 years. Keep going strong, Guy! Listening to the Hebrew version with the transcript is especially helpful.
  • MrsBloom21
    Clear and entertaining way to learn
    I especially love when we learn from commercials and songs. It is also wonderful when the episode matches something I have learned in Ulpan!
  • Adam-324
    Wonderful Podcast
    This is a wonderful podcast teaching not only modern Israeli usage but also giving some historical perspective of how the language is evolving. I am still at a basic level, but enjoy listening to and learning from Guy.
  • MisterNick6
    Best learning companion you could imagine
    This podcast is helpful for learners at all levels. It’s short enough and covers bite-sized material so it’s not overwhelming for a newbie like me but it also gives you real-world vocab with context. The topics are up to date and teach you about Tel Aviv and Israeli culture as well as the language. Guy and the entire TLV1 team do an excellent job.
  • Morah Le-Ivrit
    Entertaining and Educational
    As a Hebrew teacher living in the US, I’m grateful that this podcast helps keep me up to date on Hebrew slang. I’ve recommended episodes to students when I’ve heard an episode that compliments what we are studying, and several of my high school students have gone on to become regular listeners. Thank you, Guy, for spreading the love of the Hebrew language!
  • Birdbrains82
    One of the best tools
    If you’re learning Hebrew this has to be in your toolkit. Amazing use of sources to teach new words. Amazing work to all involved!
  • F-o-I
    Fantastic!
    This is a great podcast for those of us learning Modern Hebrew. The episodes are well thought-out, clear, and entertaining. The show notes are an added bonus that you copy and use to help study and memorize the material. Guy, the show host, is a gifted teacher and guide. He also uses sound clips from Israeli music, radio, and TV to show use of the material in real life — a great way to challenge us and boost comprehension. I’ve enjoyed following this podcast for several years and it is consistently most excellent!
  • HarlemMama
    Best podcast ever!
    Perfect bite-sized nuggets of Hebrew language from the news to daily life to entire ranges of slang not found anywhere else. I have been reinvigorating my Hebrew through online classes psince the beginning of COVID. Streetwise Hebrew is like language candy - but with content. ברבה תודות לגאי!

    Streetwise Hebrew
    I love Guy’s podcasts so much. His most recent one , להגיש חם, was unbelievably helpful and fun. What a great and useful word ! I need to work on it all week to get all the nuances and uses. I also checked out the recommended podcasts for chef Moshe Segovia and am hooked. My husband thinks I’m nuts as I bypass so many things so I can study more Hebrew. It is just so much fun , especially with a teacher like Guy. Love to all if you who make Streetwise Hebrew possible!
