he aim of every serious
student of Judaism is to achieve self-sufficiency in understanding Jewish
texts, especially the Talmud. For the young man with strong intellectual
capabilities and motivation who senses a disparity between his mastery
of secular and Jewish subjects, possessing the ability to independently
study Jewish classics is an urgent one. If he has only one year to devote
to this seemingly impossible effort before returning to his career or
general studies, he must find a program especially designed to achieving
this breakthrough quickly and effectively.
The Center is a learning
program specifically designed for the academically talented student. It
is structured for one who is seeking a deeper understanding of Judaism
and has a strong will to become independent in textual understanding.
The program takes a holistic approach to the Baal Teshuva's integration
of Torah into his life and facilitates a healthy transition to an observant
lifestyle. The program is structured in such a way that the serious student
will maximise his study time. The people teaching in the program have
gone to great efforts to design classes which will convey the tools of
Torah learning to their pupils. They combine Talmudic expertise with secular
erudition and present centuries of Jewish scholarship to contemporary
Jews in a lucid manner that retains the rigorous analytical style of the
Talmud itself..
The program has
its own convenient facilities, its own unique curriculum, its own
special
staff providing instruction and guidance to small classes so that individual
attention can be provided for each student. The residence facilities
have
been arranged to provide a comfortable feeling of exclusiveness which
allow for the expression of individuality and creativity.
