Teaching Hebrew

Today was my first lesson in teaching Hebrew to a beginner. The most important thing for him was to learn how to read and write since he is converting to Judaism and wants to understand the Torah.I planned the lesson before and printed our worksheets of the Hebrew alphabet. My plan was to teach the first six letters however I had a lot of time left and ended up teaching him how to write all 22 letter of the Hebrew alphabet. I then wrote simple words for him to read and understand. i believe that after writing each letter 10 times and practicing the letters in words he got the hang of some of the writing rules. Teaching a new language from English is a very new skill to me since i am only speaking English for 4 years. I have never taught a language before and it required a lot of patience and different teaching skills. Hopefully i will be able to plan better for the next lesson and develop my skills as we progress with the lessons.
