How to Know if Your Teacher is Israeli

So I got to class a few seconds late*, go figure, and I didn't get one of the Syllabi before I sat down so I had no idea what the name of my teacher was, but as soon as I settled in, I instantly knew she was Israeli. Here are Aaron's top 3 ways to know if your teacher is Israeli.

#3. The-Oh-How-Dare-You-Come-Slightly-Late-to-My-Class-I'm-Going-to-Murder-You-With-My-Eyes-Look
This is a classic Israeli move. If you come late, even if it's just one minute, you're going to get a stare down and that look of Middle Eastern disgust. It's not just your typical how dare you, it's how dare you do this to ME to ME. They're like, my class is the most important thing since sliced bread, what are you thinking? And then they proceed to take off as many points as possible, if you have an attendance/participation policy. Trust me, as a notorious 1-5 minute late to Hebrew class guy, I've seen this over and over again.

#2. Their cell phone rings during lecture
For some reason Israelis haven't mastered the art of silencing their phones. I don't particularly care as it gives me reason to be on my phone, equality in lecture or something, but it's happened with every Israeli teacher I've ever had.
ANDDDDD The number 1 way to know if your teacher is Israeli

#1 If when struggling to find the word, they go Ehh ehh eh. It's a classic Israeli move. Americans go um. Israelis go ehh eh and they'll do it in every conversation.

It's ok though, because it gives me more time to process what they actually mean to say. <3 you Israel, It's all good.

*I thought I was late, but people kept pouring in later and later. This one girl came to class about an hour late. So I guess I wasn't actually late.
