Gadna is an Israeli military program which prepares youth for their mandatory military service in the Israel Defense Forces. My class and I went on a Gadna week last month. This was the most unique experience I have been through (in) my whole life.

I would like to exalt my commander was nothing like I expected, he was better. When we first met him he looked like all the other commanders, but soon we realized he was different. At(ww.) the first two days he did not gave(gr. + ww.) us any pushups(phr.), he didn't punished(gr.) us and he was very, very patient. He didn't have this look of "I hate you, and I hate being here" .If something made him laugh, he laughed, if something made him angry he talked with us about it. In all our duty-rosters he helped us, and whenever we got tiered(sp.) he encouraged us, and motivated us.

In spite of the face that shooting practice may sound intimidating, this was a lot of fun. During the Gadna week we learned how to hold a gun, what the gun (is) made up(מיותר) of. We learned how to enter a magazine(what?), and how to direct and strike(ww.) our target. The shooting practice lessons were taken very seriously. Anyone who didn’t took(gr.) part or disturbed the commander during the lesson did not shoot(ww. - participate). At first, I was very nervous because I never shoot(gr.) a gun before. I wanted to quite(sp.) but I knew that I would regret it. The shooting practice turned out to be one of the most exiting things I have ever done in my life. The feeling of holding a gun and do(gr.) something I will probably never get the chance to do again was great.

I think that this week was an unforgettable experience. I made friendships with people I never met, and I renew(gr.) old connections. I got the chance to try new and different things. I learned new values and acquired new skills. I know that if somebody will give(gr.) me a chance to come back on a Gadna week(phr.), I will not hesitate and start packing my suitcases

Good essay, but you have to watch for grammar mistakes.
