In order for the conversion to be sincere, one must live in an established jewish community.  The Jewish Court in Yerushalayim Israel, which gives direction to this site, requires that before anyone can be accepted into a conversion program they must be recommended by a proper Torah Observant (Orthodox Rabbi) who is well aquainted with them.  They further do not require that people learn hebrew if they want to live in an English speaking country, although we do recommend that one should learn the use of it as it is quite helpful in prayers and learning.  One can learn the language thru Shema Yisrael's Learn Hebrew program - www.alephbais.com.

To entirely transform yourself is a process and there can be no established time limit to that.  There is no formal program that can say that in a specific amount of time you will be converted. It is very much on an individual basis, depending on one's background, where he lives and of course how he lives.

One who chooses a conversion which is not according to traditional Torah (ORTHODOX) Law will not be considered Jewish regardless of what any secular (non-torah) body decides. One may feel that this approach is easier but in the end it is a path of deception far from the absolute TRUTH of TORAH LAW, which can never be deviated from. The children of a women converted in such a way will never be considered Jewish. We therefore urge all those not to be deceived into following such a path which will ultimately lead only to heartbreak and rejection.
