Cantor Barbra tutors Bar/Bat Mitzvah candidates weekly in the convenience of their homes in Bergen County, NJ as well as Rockland County, NY. Lessons are usually 45 minutes to 1 hour per child. The majority of the lesson time is spent learning how to read in Hebrew and the prayers that the student(s) need(s) to know for his/her special day. The remainder of the time includes Torah, Jewish holidays and what it means to be Jewish.
At the initial meeting with the parents and student(s), she will discuss the books that will be used, the prayers that will be taught, a chesed project that relates to the student’s Torah portion, the Bar/Bat Mitzvah ceremony itself along with a tutoring agreement. In addition, Cantor Barbra will take the time to get to know the student(s) and learn his/her interests. The Bar/Bat Mitzvah ceremony can be conducted at the facility of your choosing.
Cantor Barbra, who is compassionate and patient, will tailor the ceremony according to each child’s needs. If extra lessons are required per week, and her time schedule is limited, then Cantor Barbra will provide a tutor for the student.
