Have you ever been in a situation where everyone seemed to speak Yiddish… except you?
Did you feel left out? Lonely? Like a Nebbish?
It’s time for you to learn to speak Yiddish… and you know it!
But how?
You can learn basic Yiddish conversation in many ways. There are live classes and groups teaching Yiddish. But that can cost a lot of gelt and be a big schlep.
There are online forums where Yiddish learners are practicing, but they don’t cater to a beginner who is just starting.
What to do?
We know how you feel! That’s why we, Shmelke and Moishe, created Yiddish Academy. Yiddish Academy is the first, only and greatest online course for learning beginner’s Yiddish.

Just listen to what Yiddish Academy students are saying about the Beginner’s Yiddish Course:
“The site was designed very well. I particularly enjoyed the sound feature to hear the yiddish words and phrases…. I thought it was fun. I even showed it to my kids and they enjoyed listening to the audio. I particularly enjoyed the beatles song.”
“So far I’m only on Lesson 1e so I’m very happy and pleased. I spend 1/2 hour each day (except Shabbos) working with the lessons on the site. My congregation is planning a Yiddish weekend next summer and I hope to know a bisl by then. A danke.”
“I sometimes volunteer in a hospital visiting lonely elderly patients. I have always wanted to be able to speak to them in Yiddish. After working through most of your course, I finally got the courage to speak to an old Jewish lady in Yiddish. She was so thrilled. It really made her day (and mine)! i hope to keep learning Yiddish so thanks so much for getting me started!!!”
We get such nachas from these letters… and we can’t wait to get more.
