Beginner Hebrew Resources

1) Rosetta Stone. This is the first place you should go. If you have several hundred dollars to spend, I strongly recommend purchasing the Hebrew Levels 1 & 2 bundle. You can also try to find it for a little less on Amazon or eBay.

But even if you don't want to spend the money, you can still go through some of the Hebrew demos for free on Rosetta Stone's website, just click here and click "Continue to free demo". Then select your language as "English" and your country as "United States", and keep following the steps to do the online demo. You can do a few of the Hebrew lessons and will begin to see the words and connect them to the pictures and the sounds.

2) Foundation Stone. This isn't as slick as Rosetta Stone, but once you get a hang of it, you can learn a lot, whether as a beginner, intermediate, or advanced student. There is free software to download and a free online tutorial.
