About Joshua


Bio

My name is Joshua and I have been tutoring and teaching various subjects since high school, nearly twenty years of experience. I especially enjoy helping students with reading and writing in both English and Hebrew.

I have a BA in Classical Civilization and Linguistics from UMass Amherst, and a profound understanding of language and how to use it. I can help you learn to read and write with greater fluency, carry conversation with poise, or give a killer speech or sermon.

My name is Joshua and I have been tutoring and teaching various subjects since high school, nearly twenty years of experience. I especially enjoy helping students with reading and writing in both English and Hebrew.

I have a BA in Classical Civilization and Linguistics from UMass Amherst, and a profound understanding of language and how to use it. I can help you learn to read and write with greater fluency, carry conversation with poise, or give a killer speech or sermon.

I also studied Teaching Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) at Brandeis and have an MA in Jewish Studies from Hebrew College. I teach Biblical and Rabbinic Hebrew up to an advanced level, and introductory Modern Hebrew. I have many years of experience in Bar/Bat/B’nai Mitzvah prep - teaching every skill you or your child need for that special day.

Whether you want to learn the basics or go deeper into the subject matter, I can help you on your learning journey. Looking for a subject you don’t see listed here? Reach out and I will let you know if I can help.

I’m a native English speaker, and have deeply studied linguistics and language education, including ESL specific training. I love teaching language, am patient, and understand the challenges students face as a language learner myself.
Hebrew

Hebrew is the language of my heart. I have a relevant MA, a second masters equivalent, and I years of experience teaching and tutoring. I mostly focus on, reading, Biblical grammar, and B’ Mitzvah prep, but I can teach rabbinic texts and basic conversational Modern Hebrew.
Reading

Reading
