4worldlovers: Marabu (מַרַבּוּ) is a hybrid Berlin- based Hebrew school offering in person and online Hebrew classes. As a passion project of Israeli educator and illustrator Ella Cohen, it puts special emphasis on the visual aspect of language learning, combining traditional Ulpan teaching methods with uncompromised , constantly updated original content. Whether your goal is to speak, write or read Hebrew- Marabu will get you there fast, using playful, personally tailored and attentive instruction.

I cannot say enough good things about Ella as a teacher. I have been taking lessons with her once a week for just over a year. My goals were to improve my vocabulary and to enjoy the beauty of the language in a relaxed and encouraging atmosphere. She brings comics, music, fine art, and literature to our lessons - I often learn things that I think about all through the week until the next lesson. Ella is truly a gem!

Now that I have an Israeli partner I wanted to learn the basics so I could better communicate with his family, but also as future preparation for my own family. Ella’s classes are like a call/meeting with a friend that also has an agenda. It’s the brightest hour of my week !

I've been taking classes with Ella for a year and a half. I have a lot of friends and family who live in Israel and I wanted to converse with them in their language. Ella’s understanding of my needs as a student are outstanding: I never feel frustrated or overwhelmed because she knows exactly how and when to introduce new ideas and I always wish there was more time in the classes. Ella is so fun to chat with not just as a teacher but also as a friendly, funny, and insightful person.

Ella is a fantastic teacher. She is teaching my 11-year old daughter Hebrew. From the very beginning, Ella wanted to know more about my daughter, things she is interested in, and her drive behind wanting to learn Hebrew. All of this, of course, helped to know what would keep my daughter engaged in lessons. She is so joyful about her progress and excited for each of her lessons.

Ella gestaltet den Unterricht sehr abwechslungsreich und motiviert mich (als Anfänger) durch einfache Fragen aktiv Hebräisch zu sprechen. Ellas Unterricht ist sehr gut strukturiert und macht durch ihre sympathische Art und ihre didaktischen Fähigkeiten viel Spaß, so dass die 60 Minuten auch abends nicht anstrengend sind und man schnell Fortschritte merkt. Ich kann Ella auch für Anfänger ohne Vorkenntnisse als Hebräisch Lehrerin nur empfehlen!

4worldlovers: When we write climate stories, we often imagine our main characters as scientists or activists. But the truth is, anyone can be a climate character. We don’t need to create another Greta Thunberg.

Think of your own grandma, for example. She might just be the perfect climate hero. My grandmother lived in Istanbul, and she had some wonderful sustainable habits. She didn’t care if the peppers were perfectly shaped or if the apples and carrots looked like soldiers in a row. She didn’t buy pre-cut, pre-packaged fruits or vegetables wrapped in unnecessary plastic. In fact, she would have been shocked to see ten grapes enclosed in layers of plastic packaging. When it came to buying meat, she supported the local butcher instead of relying on imports from faraway places.

Food waste was never an option for her. She was incredibly resourceful and creative in the kitchen, using every bit of a vegetable when she cooked. She turned yoghurt tubs into flower pots, finding beauty in repurposing. She didn’t buy loads of cheap clothing every month but always looked well-dressed. She had a sewing machine, and I have fond memories of her sewing me pyjamas in just half an hour one night when my mom forgot to pack them. Her wardrobe was like a treasure chest, full of exciting surprises whenever she opened its heavy wooden doors.

Take a moment to think about your own family. Do you have an eccentric aunt or a wise grandfather whose old-fashioned ways are now eco-friendly trends? They may not be activists or have fancy titles, but their everyday choices contribute to the climate narrative.

We invite you to share your environmental stories in any language you are comfortable with. Be hilarious, passionate, daring, sarcastic, or whatever your imagination wants.

We would happily promote your website or links to your other works. So, if you like, please send us a short bio and a photo when you submit your work

‘The most important thing you can do to fight climate change is talk about it ’ climate scientist Katharine Hayhoe says. That’s the most crucial thing that anyone can do to fight our changing climate. It doesn’t involve switching to solar energy or composting. (Although those are still incredibly helpful things to do.) You can do it anytime, anywhere.

It has got nothing to do with how much we know about science or even how smart we are. When it comes to talking about the changing climate, it’s all about changing our conversation style. Instead of throwing data and facts at each other, we should start by finding common ground in our shared values.

Why not have a chat with your friends, loved ones, and community about climate change? You’d be amazed at how much of a positive impact a single conversation can make. And then you can write down a story about it. It could be a fantasy, comedy, satire, drama, sci-fi or gritty realism. Climate change can totally be woven into any type of story or genre, no problem!
