Willy Hayman
Hebrew/Spanish Teacher
Language Coach

Born in southern Argentina and moving to Israel at 17, Willy knows firsthand what it’s like to be a newcomer in a country where you don’t speak the language.
"This experience taught me that everyone is capable of learning a foreign language—the key is simply building self-confidence."
Since then, language learning has become his second passion (right after rugby). He learns new languages daily and is always on the lookout for his next linguistic adventure!

Born in the U.S., raised in Belgium, and moved to Israel when she was 18, Jess has always found deep meaning in connecting different cultures.
"For me, learning a language is like unlocking a whole new world—new perspectives, cultures, and ways of thinking. It pushes you beyond your comfort zone and into someone else’s reality."
When she's not at Fluent, Jess spends most of her time playing rugby or biking around Tel-Aviv. Speaks: French, English, Hebrew, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch | Learning: Arabic.Maayan Tzadok
