WHY NESHAMAH
Why Families Choose Our Online Hebrew School
Live classes, not just an app
Your child learns with a real teacher and real classmates every week on Zoom, plus self-paced Hebrew practice between sessions. Screens are the tool. Relationships are the point.
A rabbi who knows your child's name
Rabbi Amy Rader, ordained by the Jewish Theological Seminary with more than 25 years of experience, personally guides every family. Your child is never a username to us.
Interfaith families warmly welcomed
Many Neshamah families are interfaith. Every parent, Jewish or not, is honored here as a partner in raising a Jewish child.
Every learner, every level
Total beginner? Some background? Learning differences? Our individualized approach meets your child exactly where they are.
A community, not just a curriculum
Online families join monthly virtual Shabbat and holiday celebrations. Your kids will have Jewish friends, even if the nearest synagogue is three hours away.
WHAT YOUR CHILD WILL LEARN
Our Online Hebrew School Curriculum
Four strands, woven together every week: Hebrew, story, song, and values.
HEBREW READING
Neshamah Aleph Champ
Our leveled Hebrew reading program helps kids build fluency at their own pace, one letter, one word, one blessing at a time. Students advance through color-coded levels from White all the way to Black and Gold, earning real confidence with every new sound, and finishing with our Torah Hebrew capstone.
TORAH DRAMA
The Stories, Alive
Kids bring the Torah’s biggest stories to life through drama and role play, discovering that these ancient narratives are still full of surprises. Torah Drama turns listeners into participants in the story of the Jewish people, which is their story too.
RUACH
Jewish Music and Prayer
Music is how so many of us feel prayer in our bodies, not just our heads. Ruach introduces kids to the melodies and rhythms of Jewish prayer, with music from our own Musical Director, Sharon Shear, so the words of the Shabbat service are carried into the heart by song.
JEWISH VALUES
Mitzvah of the Month
Each month brings one Jewish value to explore, discuss, and put into action. Students build a vocabulary of values that shapes how they see themselves and how they treat others, connecting Torah to everyday choices.
