****Hebrew, Mathematics, and Special Education*****

You have started on a fun and educational journey towards learning Hebrew, Mathematics, Bat/Bar Mitzvah, or any subject under Special Education guidelines!

I am a certified math and special ed teacher and a lay Cantor- a leader of the Hebrew singing in my congregation. I have been teaching and tutoring Hebrew, Mathematics, Special Education and Bat/Bar Mitzvah preparation-- for 40 years. I have a Master's Degree in Education and Mathematics.

I have worked with students of all ages and abilities. Toddlers through grandmothers. Autistic through Gifted. Remedial Hebrew reading and basic counting skills through understanding Biblical Hebrew and Pre-calculus. And everything in between.

You and your student will learn to love Hebrew as they learn Hebrew- or love Math as they learn Math! We will sing and be both silly and serious as you and your student become the Scholars that you hope to be!

If you are a typical student, a student with special needs, or a student who is gifted and needs more challenging Hebrew liturgy or mathematics to learn, your educational needs and desires will be met, and you will enjoy yourself throughout your learning.

My students love working with me- we have fun and learn a lot.

In addition to my Master's in Math Ed, I studied Hebrew, liturgy, and cantillation at Gratz College, as part of their Hebrew Music program. I founded and led a Hebrew Children's Choir, sing with an adult Hebrew choir, and regularly lead the musical Hebrew portions of Jewish services.

I look forward to meeting you on Zoom!

Amazing Hebrew Tutor

I can't say enough good things about Meira!!! Learning Hebrew with her has been an absolute blast. She makes every lesson fun and interactive, and her passion for the language is contagious. This is my second try at Hebrew. I gave up the first time as it felt too hard. But now I'm feeling more confident thanks to her patient and encouraging teaching style. If you're looking for a Hebrew tutor who's not only awesome at what they do but also makes learning a joy, she is the one!!!!

Ledia, 44 lessons with Meira

Great teacher

Meira patiently explained all the questions I had problems with, boosting my confidence in solving them. Everything feels clearer now.

Jankee, 1 lesson with Meira

Engaged and helpful tutor

Meira has been tutoring our daughter for her bat mitzvah. She is incredibly friendly and makes a successful effort to relate to my daughter and her interests. My daughter looks forward to their sessions together, where Meira teaches the Hebrew language, prayers, and other aspects of the Jewish religion and history. Meira is very encouraging, and they are making rapid progress together.

Michael, 33 lessons with Meira

Knowledgeable and patient Tutor

I believe I learned quite a bit in the few minutes I had with her though we may not have progressed very far in terms of volume of content which is a testament to her thoroughness and patience.

Meira is an excellent tutor - I highly recommend

Meira has been an amazing tutor. She is very patient, understanding and really knows the subject matter. After each lesson she prepares a very detailed email summary of the lesson as well as clear instructions and provides materials for next the week, going way beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Meira as a tutor.

Aaron, 18 lessons with Meira

Not just a Hebrew teacher, but a guide on your spiritual journey as well.

I started working with Meira in July. I've been attending synagogue pretty frequently but I always felt lost during Shabbat and wanted to learn Hebrew so I could keep up. Meira rose to the occasion in a myriad of ways. She is teaching me the alphabet, the songs, and explaining the meaning of the spiritual practices that occur at synagogue. She is also a wonderful person to talk to in general and a great conversationalist. Overall, I couldn't have picked a better tutor. I highly recommend her for any of your Hebrew learning needs.

Felix, 8 lessons with Meira

Wonderful women

She knows what she is doing. They are making me write 160 characters, I don't have much more to say. I am a brief kinda guy. not there yet, need to keep writing

Michael , 31 lessons with Meira

Patient and encouraging Hebrew tutor

Me'ira has been an excellent tutor! As an adult learner with extremely limited experience in Hebrew, I was nervous about beginning tutoring, but Me'ira has been so helpful and is great at adjusting to student pace. I very much enjoy my tutoring sessions and will keep coming back :)

Lauren, 19 lessons with Meira

Two thumbs up from the student (& parent)

Meira was excellent. She had a lesson plan, she encouraged my son when he stumbled on words and recognized when he had reached his limit- all indications of an experienced teacher. My son so enjoyed working with Meira that we already have the next lesson scheduled.
