"Dear Margaret, It is hard to put into words all that I am thankful for since we first met. You patiently, but quickly, taught me to read Hebrew, prepared me for my Bat Mitzvah, and became a mentor. Our friendship means so much to me."

  • Private
  • Group

Bar/Bat Mitzvah is translated as “son” or “daughter” of the commandment. Today, the Bar/Bat mitzvah ceremony is one of only a few public rites available to pre-teens to mark the passage from childhood to adulthood. Becoming Bar/Bat mitzvah is to become a link in an unbroken chain of a rich heritage that insures from one generation to the next, L’Dor Vador, that Jewish learning and tradition will thrive.

The ceremony of publicly standing up in front of a congregation to read/chant from the Torah for the first time is to say the least, character building. Preparation for a Bar/Mitzvah is demanding and requires a lot of families. I enjoy providing whatever support I can to insure a moving and joy-filled experience.

Time and time again I have the privilege to witness remarkable transformation in my students as they embark on a journey of self-discovery. I am available to prepare your child to read/chant from the Torah as well as officiate a Bar/Bat Mitzvah ceremony.
