Ben-Yehuda immigrated to Eretz Israel alone in 1910, as one of the first forty boys to come to the Herzliya Gymnasium without parents and was a graduate of the second class. At the same time, he worked in Carmei Rehovot for tuition and studied conducting and music and playing the piano, concertina and mandolin with the gymnasium teacher Hanina Karczewski. With the outbreak of World War I, he and his friends Eliyahu Golomb, Moshe Sharett and Dov Hoz founded the Histadrut Hatzor Hatzair ("Gymnasists"), which dedicated themselves to national service in Hebrew education for children. He was later sent to Degania and served as a Hebrew teacher for the group members and a cultural guide. On his pioneering character defending values and principles, Natan Alterman wrote the play "Kinneret Kinneret". In 1916, after contracting a fever, he was forced to move to Rosh Pina, where he taught Hebrew and music at the local school run by Wilkomic. He founded the "Young Rosh Pina" organization to strengthen the settlement and married Yaffa Turknitz, the home of teacher Aharon Turkenitz, who later after Wilkomich's death from the typhus epidemic (1919) was appointed principal of the school. In 1920, he received a scholarship from Baron Rothschild to study mathematics and physics in Brussels, and after graduating with honors with a doctorate in mathematics teaching, he returned to Israel and taught at the Herzliya Gymnasium. In addition, he taught in the gymnasium the subjects Talmud, Bible, History of Zionism as a compulsory subject in the matriculation certificate and music.

He was also on the editorial staff of the "Youth Encyclopedia" and edited the book "The Gymnasium". He also wrote the book "Everyone is Loved" about his memories as an educator.
