I studied hebrew for a few years, and am brushing up on it now.
Todah Rabah!
First, I would learn how to use the Flyer Talk search function as there are in depth discussions on that question a couple of times a year.

That being said, I would consider a full week within Jerusalem, and then use a second week with Tel Aviv as a base.

If you are going to be in those two cities the entire time, you might need a map to find people who do not speak english.
