I have been teaching Judaic Studies at the high school level for the past two years at Westchester Hebrew High School, where I designed lessons that balanced text study, critical thinking, and meaningful discussion. My educational background includes deep study in Judaic texts, pedagogy, and classroom instruction, which has given me the skills to adapt lessons for students with a wide range of abilities and learning styles. I bring a strong foundation in both traditional text study and modern educational methods, allowing me to make complex material accessible and engaging.
My experience extends beyond the classroom as well. I have worked one-on-one with students to provide individualized support, helping them develop skills in close reading, analytical writing, and test preparation. I am experienced in teaching teenagers, but I have also worked with younger students in informal settings such as summer programs and tutoring sessions. I believe strongly in meeting students where they are, encouraging their curiosity, and building their confidence as learners.
In my tutoring, I strive to create an environment that is warm, supportive, and student-centered. I incorporate a variety of approaches depending on the needs of the learner, including guided questioning, interactive discussion, and step-by-step skill building. My goal is always to help students not only succeed academically but also develop a genuine appreciation for learning.
