About the Assimil method
Assimil is a revolutionary self-study method based on the simple,
effective principle of intuitive assimilation. This is the natural
process through which you learned your own language. With lively
dialogues, simple notes and practical exercises, the Assimil method
will bring you to a level where you can converse comfortably.
- In the first part of the course, the passive phase, you soak up the
language by reading and repeating each lesson.
- You then move on to the active phase, applying the structures
and automatic reflexes you have absorbed, while continuing to
advance.
In just a few months, you will be able to speak effortlessly and
naturally, without hesitation.

How to use your Assimil course Passive phase
- Read through the dialogues using the
phonetic transcription as a guide (or listen
to the recordings if you have them).
- Repeat each sentence aloud.
- Read the translation on the facing page.
- Use the notes to understand distinctive
features of the language.
- Test yourself using the two exercises (with
answer keys) that accompany each lesson.
- Review what you have learned each week in
a concluding review lesson.
Active phase Once you are halfway through the course, you
will know enough to go on to the active phase.
As you learn each new lesson, you will also
review an earlier one, following our instructions,
and translate the dialogue from English into
Hebrew. You'll be delighted at the results!
With regular study, in just a few months you
will be able to speak Hebrew fluently and
naturally!
