Make Judaic studies come alive as you and/or your child interact with our faculty in a customized Jewish education program delivered in your home, either in person or via virtual learning. Our Judaic studies teachers explore Jewish traditions and help you and your child make meaningful connections to and in your daily lives. After working closely with our faculty, you will be able to understand holiday traditions, enjoy conversational Hebrew, connect with Israel, and prepare for life cycle events.

At My Learning Springboard, we focus on a hands-on and differentiated approach to learning. We help families with Hebrew School alternatives, day school support, and bar and bat mitzvah preparation. Learning to read the Alef-Bet is just one part of the process. Developing a deep understanding of Jewish culture and history is another. Our Judaic studies also allow for age appropriate exploration of the Torah and other texts. In their Judaic studies, younger students focus on understanding what the Torah is and how it guides Jewish life, while our older students may focus on a particular part of the Torah in preparation for their Bar or Bar Mitzvah.

Our Judaic studies enrichment options are deep and varied. We can develop a thematic book study that connects with historical units being covered in school. Book clubs for children and adults are options as well. Don’t forget about the food — cooking, baking and eating are fantastic ways to develop an understanding of Jewish culture and history all while having fun. Field trips to museums, both in person and virtually, can enhance the historical significance of Jewish life and art. Your imagination is the limit to the enrichment experiences we can support. Make Judaic studies a family experience!

We are able to curate Judaic studies, thematic units, and a variety of programs that incorporate:

• Art
• Cooking
• Culture
• Dance
• Geography
• History
• Social action
• Storytelling
• Text study

Create a Foreign Language Learning Experience for Yourself and Your Family.

Learning a foreign language offers so many benefits beyond the acquisition of a second, third or even fourth language. Immerse yourself in the culture of another country while you exercise and increase your cognitive capacity, improve your analytical and problem solving skills while at the same time enhancing your listening and memory skills, build your multitasking skills, become more perceptive and a better decision-maker. Yes, learning a new language can do all that and more!

Learning a foreign language with My Learning Springboard’s specialists will open the door to enhanced cross-cultural connections, perhaps reviving a long lost international friendship. Children and adults who study a second language are found to be more open-minded and to have more self-confidence. These are life-long skills and attributes that can be career-enhancing and make traveling more pleasurable. Learning a second, third or even fourth foreign language is world-opening in terms of understanding how cultural differences and similarities are expressed verbally, in the arts, science, food, fashion, philosophy, literature and more. Moreover, once we start studying grammar across multiple languages, we begin to see how the language choices we make are not arbitrary. Rather, grammar is the architecture of language, setting up the foundations – and possibilities – for how we can express meaning.

Don’t miss the chance to develop or refine your understanding of another country, culture and language for yourself or your child. My Learning Springboard’s specialists help learners of all ages develop foreign language skills by providing one-one-one or small group instruction. Our specialists will work with you in-person or online using Skype or Google Hangouts, no matter your location.
