What Our Families Are Saying

Risa K Member since 2025

A Big Thank You to you Rabbi, for not only teaching my niece the Bat Mitzvah material, but more importantly, encouraging her to connect with her Jewish soul and bring more mitzvot into this world.

Beth M Member since 2019

We had the best experience with Neshamah getting out two children ready for their Bar and Bat Mitzvah. They both did the once a week Judaic Studies program with their friends and then the B’nai Mitzvah once a week studies. Rabbi Amy, Jennifer, Ellen and all of the staff create a very helpful, supportive and loving environment to learn in.

Laura B Member since 2024

Many family members told me that it was the most beautiful Bat Mitzvah they had ever attended! We are ETERNALLY grateful! THANK YOU !

Steve A Member since 2010

You instilled in Julia the confidence to learn and lead the whole service beautifully. Everyone loved the service and felt that it was the best one they had ever been to! 🙂 You are amazing and very inspirational and we truly appreciate all you did for our family.

Perri G Member since 2015

You were brilliant with our daughter and made this entire process ENJOYABLE. You nailed it … she truly enjoyed preparing for her Bat Mitzvah and was equally proud of herself. We were beside ourselves with pride on how wonderful she was.

Marcy M Member since 2015

The Bat Mitzvah service was upbeat, warm and enjoyable to be part of. I knew from the beginning we needed to be a part of Neshamah. We look forward to continuing our involvement within your special community!!

Andrea B Member since 2015

Thank you so much for today's lesson. Martin came home so happy, he had a blast doing the chocolate matzah.

Heather M Member since 2014

As far as tuition….worth every penny ;-)).

Tracy S Member since 2016

Both my girls got in the car last Tuesday so happy and eager to learn. My older daughter who has been to a few Hebrew schools said "this is the best Hebrew school I have ever been to!" Thank you so much, I am thrilled.

Stacey L Member since 2015

Our son really enjoyed it and not once complained about going to class which is unheard of from him!

Jodi F Member since 2017

Morgan loved it. She is so excited to show me that she knows the 3 letters and can write Shabbat. She asked if she can go more than once a week and said she wants to go ahead on the computer.
