Where Torah learning is available for all!
In memory of Rabbi Hershel Hakohen Pfeffer ע"ה
Which one is you?
"I would learn more just..."
The "Schedule-it-in" man
What makes it work >
For me to learn, it has to be part of my schedule, with a set place and time every day.
AM or PM? Bais Medrash fits your schedule.
The "Convenient" man
What makes it work >
It's got to be the right environment. Y'know, easy access to seforim, constant coffee, the right guys...
Life doesn't get easier than a fully stocked Bois Medrash!
The "At-my-own-pace" man
What makes it work >
I want a quite, focuesed place with leanign atmosphere
I need the right atmosphere to study in; a quiet space, the avir of learning and no-one looking over my shoulder.
Bais Medrash offers an extremely low-pressure, peaceful environment, perfect for focused learning.
The "I-need-a-partner" man
What makes it work >
It's much more geshmak with a teacher or a chavrusa. That would keep me motivated.
Find the perfect partner or intriguing topic at Bais Medrash.
The "Too-Busy" man
What makes it work >
I've got work, kids, a family, my house. There is just no time!
Ki Heim Chayenu… and a dedicated place outside the house helps Torah become priority.
The "Need- structure" man
What makes it work >
Sounds great, but I have a hard time sticking to a commitment. There's just no motivation.
