I’ve been learning Persian (Farsi) for a while now, and I’m using a bunch of tools for it. The central one is certainly Anki, a spaced repetition app to train memory. I’m creating my own never-ending deck of cards, with different types of content, for different purposes. The most frequent type of cards is grammar focused phrases (very rarely single words) coming sometimes from my own daily life, but also very often directly from videos of the Persian Learning YouTube channel, created by Majid, a very talented and nice Persian teacher, in my opinion.
And yet, language teaching program after program have identical structures, identical course sequences, identical syllabi. You can go almost anywhere in the world and learn almost the exact same things in your language teacher training program, even if it's a grad program.
And almost never do those things include HOW TO MOVE STUDENTS FROM 0 TO FLUENCY IN THE TIME WE HAVE WITH THEM.
Which is, like, our only job.
So then you have to ask: how can an entire profession, present in every school around the world, practiced for hundreds of years, be mostly unsuccessful?
Either:
We don't care
or
😶🌫️we don't actually want it to be successful
Worth sitting with those options for a moment... Who benefits? Whose power is reinforced? Whose dominance is preserved? 🧠💭

We'll all need to redesign our trust habits intentionally for the #AI era.
AI systems hijack the #trust mechanisms our brains evolved for dealing with our fellow human beings, such as the #fluency heuristic (confident quick responses sound more trustworthy than hesitant slow responses).
What's one thing you're doing differently in that arena, either relative to people you know or relative to past-you?
Here's mine...
Ohio State will begin to include AI into their coursework, with a goal to ensure that every student, beginning with the class of 2029 onwards, will graduate proficient in AI usage. The university’s AI Fluency program will launch this fall for all incoming first-year students in their undergraduate curriculum, according to a June 4 press […]
Will my programs make you fluent in Hebrew? How long will it take? What’s the best way?
Forget about fluency. It’s not a switch you flip—it’s a journey.
I’ve spoken English since I was 4, run a business in it, and am even married to an English speaker. Am I fluent? No idea. And it doesn’t matter.
Fluency isn’t about never making mistakes. It’s about progress.
The real magic?
✅ Understanding more conversations
✅ Ordering in Hebrew with confidence
✅ Building relationships & new opportunities
Focus on small wins. Find a method that keeps you moving forward. Enjoy the process. That’s what makes Hebrew part of your life! 💙
