Partners in Torah: Judaism with a Personal Touch
Source: Partners in Torah
Partners in Torah, affiliated with Torah Umesorah - The National Society of Orthodox Day Schools, is a cost-free learning opportunity for Jews to discover Judaism – its culture, history, and traditions – at their pace and their schedule. Jewish men and women who have an interest in Jewish study but who may lack the academic background, are matched, one-to-one, with a carefully selected personal Torah trainer or mentor for up to an hour a week of study and discussion. The course of study is self-directed, driven by the personal, often varied interests of each participant. Partners in Torah currently has some 13,000 religiously diverse participants studying together each week in over 900 cities across North America.
