Here is a list of regular adult classes offered at TBA. Reach out to Rabbi Bloom or Susan Simon with any questions.
Every Wednesday 9-10:00 am at Paulista Brazilian Cafe
Congregants meet to read the weekly parasha in order to gain different understandings of the words and their historical context. What did the ancient sages and commentators say about the passages? Can it be applied to modern life? All skill levels, abilities and desires are welcomed.
Every Saturday 9-9:30 am on Zoom
Join TBA education director Susan Simon to read and discuss selected texts. Contact Susan Simon for the Zoom link.
This group meets monthly on the Monday closest to the Rosh Chodesh-9:30 to 11:30 am. Contact Amy Tessler for locations as we meet at members’ homes on a rotating basis.
Adult education classes take place through the year on select Sunday mornings, 10 am-Noon. There are an array of teachers and topics. Watch the TBA calendar for updates.
Designed for adults who want to learn to decode Hebrew, and be able to follow along in the Siddur. By the end of the class all students will be able to decode Hebrew slowly, and will have a good foundation for further learning in Hebrew. Cost is $100 plus the cost of the book. New dates will be announced shortly for the next cohort. To sign up, contact Susan Simon.
This class is designed both for those looking into converting to Judaism and anyone who just wants to learn a bit more. When in session this class meets on Wednesday night at 7:30 pm in the Baum Youth Service. For information on the next class cycle, contact Rabbi Bloom.
