[etni] Morim Olim Israeli Certification Hack Possible?

Hi, everyone! I am completing my first year of teaching in Israel, and coming 
to the end of my MOE Morim Olim course at Shaanan College. The next hurdle is 
to take the required classes in subjects such as Israeli Civics, Jewish 
history, etc., to get my full teaching certification.

The problem is, my Hebrew wasn't good enough to pass the entry exam to enter 
the course. Some of my fellow olim teachers, however, got exemptions for these 
classes because they had university credits for classes covering the same 
material.

Here's my question: is it possible to place out of all these classes by taking 
them in English via an accredited university that teaches online, such as 
Israel's Open University, or another university overseas? I am scared that, 
despite having completed Ulpan Aleph, I won't improve my Hebrew quickly enough 
to be able to do the coursework in the two years I have remaining to get my 
license.

Any or all suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as I truly want to get my 
full teaching license here.

Best wishes and Shabbat shalom,
