Immersion is the way all of us have learnt our mother tongue. In fact, it is the only way to properly learn a language. Israel Connect has chosen an online, immersive approach because research demonstrates that it works. Language immersion is proven to not only be one of the most effective ways to learn a language, it is one of the most enjoyable ways as well. We are proud of our success in eliminating barriers to English language education!

Q: How is Israel Connect funded?

Israel Connect is built upon a foundation of people who are committed to ensuring all Israeli youth have access to English language learning. We are funded by the generous support of our donors. We do have a suggested donation of $18 a month to cover costs. In this way, many of our mentors partner with us in not only giving their time, but ensuring we can cover our costs as well.

Q: What are the technology requirements to be a mentor?

We just ask that our mentors have a computer, phone or tablet with internet access, and an email address where we can send our curriculum and updates. We provide trainings and tech support to use our online video conferencing platform.
