Whisper is free and classroom instruction should be a breeze and require little correction, as there likely isn't much background noise or music.

And it only works with English. As discussed elsewhere in the thread, the majority of the videos are in Hebrew.

Even for much less exotic languages such as French automatic speech recognition systems don't work or are extremely bad.

I mentioned Whisper because it works with a lot of languages. But I understand your confusion, because there are additional lightweight models that are only available for English. Its accuracy is less good for Hebrew, but instructional materials are likely optimal input.

Depending on how you define "work", Whisper also works with Hebrew. Not sure if the word error rate is acceptable though https://github.com/openai/whisper/#available-models-and-lang...
