Terms & Conditions (yes, also for us).

A student can’t start a course without settling their payment, and a seat in a class can’t be saved without a full payment. Sounds strict, but it’s the only fair way for the people on the waiting list.

• In-person: minimum 6 · maximum 12.
• Online: minimum 4 · maximum 8.

For any level above Aleph, students are expected to know how to read and write in Hebrew — both print and cursive letters. Not sure if you qualify? Book a free level assessment and we’ll tell you exactly.

In the rare case a class doesn’t reach the minimum number of students by the registration deadline, we offer the registered students one of the following:

1. 1
   Shorter, same price

   Reduce the total hours by 25–50% while keeping the tuition the same. The pace is faster, but the smaller group makes that work.
2. 2
   Delay by up to two weeks

   Sometimes a few extra days is all it takes to fill the seats.
3. 3
   Full refund

   If neither option is feasible for you, we refund in full and part as friends.

All learning materials are included in the tuition. Books, handouts, digital flashcards — everything.

It is mandatory to do homework, as homework is an important part of studying. Students who skip it don’t just slow themselves down — they slow the whole group’s progress down too. We love you for trying, and we’ll love you more for doing the homework.

From time to time the Ulpan staff might take photos of our students and use them on social media, on our website, and in sponsored content. If you’d rather not appear, just tell your teacher — we’ll happily keep you out of frame.

Students who miss the first days of the Aleph course will have to cover the material through private lessons at a cost of ₪200 per hour. The first lessons set up everything that comes after, so we’d rather you catch up properly than spend the rest of the course chasing.

All new students are required to do a level assessment with one of our teachers. If the teacher recommends private lessons before the course in order to reach a required level, and you commit to doing them but don’t actually reach the level by the start of the course — no refund will be offered. (We say this kindly. It happens, and it’s awkward for everyone.)

It is highly recommended not to miss lessons. Students who miss more than 3 classes might be required to take private lessons to get back to class level. If you know in advance you’ll miss the first lessons, please let us know — we can plan around it.

A full refund applies only if you cancel 14 working days or more before the class’s scheduled starting date. Even then, a ₪100 administration fee will be deducted. We hate paperwork as much as you do — that fee is what it costs to undo it.

In the sad event of a bereavement, we want to help you, not add to your troubles. Immediate family members will be entitled to a full refund (minus the refund administration fee) on presentation of a copy of the death certificate. We’re sorry.

A student found stealing from the Ulpan, the teachers, or other students; or harming or harassing — physically or verbally — the Ulpan’s assets, teachers, or students, will be expelled immediately without any refund and may be subject to legal action.

Students are responsible for their own personal belongings. Ulpan Bayit is not responsible for stolen, lost, or damaged items belonging to students. Ulpan Bayit is not liable to you for any injury, death, costs related to medical treatment, or costs related to repatriation, or for any other losses, damages (whether direct or indirect), compensation, costs, or expenses.
