"After 13 years at the Yeshivah of Flatbush (k-12), a writing degree from Barnard (with minors in architecture and psychology) and graduate school at Teachers College, I am fluent in Hebrew (and English!), well-versed in Judaism, and experienced in working with students of all ages and abilities.

These skills are further enhanced by decades of piano and voice lessons, choral singing, participation in women's tefillah groups, Braille transcribing, and editing. I have tutoring experience going all the way back to high school, and am now looking to expand my clientele.

My tutoring experience covers bar/bat mitzvah, cantillation (for kids and adults), Jewish literacy (similar to Hebrew School), and test prep. I also have taught writing skills to help students organize essays, term papers, and theses, as well as music (reading, etc.). I like to incorporate the student's interests to make the subject more relatable, and provide interesting activities (such as baking cookies!) to bring my lessons to life. By combining my various areas of knowledge, I can help with everything from learning to read Hebrew and chanting the Torah portion to writing a speech and thank-you notes.

I am patient with students of all levels and learning abilities, whether in person or on Zoom. I want our time together to be something we will both remember fondly." less...
