Finally, a curriculum for B‑Mitzvah students with dyslexia.
Introducing the Hineni Method
If your child is dyslexic, or struggles with reading, the prospect of learning to read in Hebrew can feel daunting.
That’s why we developed the Hineni Method: a structured, sequential, and multisensory curriculum designed to teach Hebrew reading, prayer, and Torah trope using proven strategies for dyslexic learners. The program is taught entirely on Zoom, so students from anywhere can get the support they need.
They’re kvelling (and so are we)
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so relentlessly positive, and bringing enthusiasm and excitement to Jewish tradition.

You had so many helpful tips and tricks for me. When I started, I didn't know a single letter. Now, I can read and chant Torah! I’ll never forget your help.
– Ella from New York, NY
You made the whole thing super fun and I always looked forward to our lessons. I felt I could always be myself around you. I couldn't have asked for a better teacher.
