I had always wanted to make aliyah when my DH and I were just starting out but it was not to be, for various reasons.

It happens I am the main breadwinner and am getting to a point where I am in the latter half of my career.

I am thinking I want to take a Sabbatical from my job and spend several months in Israel learning. I never got to do this when I was younger. I want a chance to also learn Hebrew. If we ever decide to make aliyah when we retire, Hebrew will not be so easy to learn at that age. But I doubt this will happen for reasons below.

When I return to the States I will most likely look for a new position that has a slower pace but I still need to work to contribute to retirement funds and financial support that I expect our DC will need.

My Dh and I have an agreement that he will work in the States when I am in Israel to keep up the health insurances. And we will both visit each other and I will probably also travel back to the States every 3 months anyway.

So with all that said, any ideas for program options that would accommodate and English speaking career woman?

I know someone who did this at Eyhat.

Nishmat and Matan also offer programs like this.

Just saying, older people can learn languages as well as younger people if they're willing to do the same work.
