About Ben


Bio

I have 15+ years of experience working as both a classroom teacher for middle and high school students, as well as having tutored and conducted B'nai mitzvah with the 92 Street Y. I love working with students of all ages but have most experience working with High School and Middle School. I tutor using a comprehensive approach that includes all five senses. I aim to teach Hebrew reading and trope, but also teach using tapes and other resources.

I have 15+ years of experience working as both a classroom teacher for middle and high school students, as well as having tutored and conducted B'nai mitzvah with the 92 Street Y. I love working with students of all ages but have most experience working with High School and Middle School. I tutor using a comprehensive approach that includes all five senses. I aim to teach Hebrew reading and trope, but also teach using tapes and other resources.

I have 15+ years tutoring as well as have worked as both a classroom and camp teacher. I am certified with the Gratz College Jewish Education Learning Certificate. I have also taken Ulpan courses at Hebrew University in Jerusalem for the learning of Modern Hebrew of which I am competent.

Please contact me if interested. Preferably you will begin studying at least 1 year before your Bar Mitzvah date, but it is not uncommon to begin as many as 3 years ahead of time. I am happy to schedule time to determine how much you already know and determine a road map to a successful Bar Mitzvah day.
