Our Methods:

 

• Each child is given the ability to learn in the way that truly reaches them.  This takes knowing each talmid, their strengths and challenges and how best to inspire them to grow and succeed. 

 

• Learning Torah is a fun and meaningful experience when presented in a way that is understood and internalized by the student.

 

• All subjects, Chumash with mefarshim, Mishna, Tanach, Gemara and all aspects of Toras Chayim are meaningful to the child and that the Torah's instructions and real messages are absorbed by students.

 

• The power of maasim, stories, are used fully. Nothing drives home a point or inspires Yiras Shomayim like a story, partly because nothing fascinates us like a story. Children love stories and nothing makes them realize the greatness of the Torah way of life and Stories of the Avos HaKedoshim, Aggadeta and stories of Tzaddikim. 

 

More:

 

Chinuch without compromise is a way of life in our boys cheder.  Meeting the needs of each child is why we are here.  

One child will be inspired by Pirush HaMilos, the explanation of the words of davening.  Another is inspired by stories, stories which serve as living examples of closeness with, dedication to and awe of Hashem.  

We do not overburden the child with outside writing and pressures and thereby chas vsholom stifle all desire to learn.   We discuss Gemara, we ask and answer - and encouarge - questions.
