Thanks for all of your suggestions!

Yalemom, did your son have any prior arabic experience? how much did he feel he learned?
Actually, same goes for your daughter, aliceinw…

JHS, that’s really good to know. Do you think, then, that any summer immersion program I might do would be useless, or just the Chicago one?

I’m just trying to filter out experiences that won’t be as productive as I’d like them to be. It’s hard to know from brochures… Granted, one person’s experience doesn’t mean everything, but it’s something to work from.

[I am decently good at Hebrew now, so I’ve already got a grip on roots, semetic patterns, right to left, etc… I know that won’t matter too much down the road, but it’s something to boost the beginning]

Thanks again for all your help!
