Testimonials

"Tamar is an incredibly knowledgable, patient, kind, and passionate educator. She turned Biblical Hebrew tutoring, something I was nervous to take on, into an in-depth text study opportunity that transformed my relationship with the Book of Ruth. Tamar makes the nuts and bolts of Biblical Hebrew relevant and interesting to Jewish life and learning."

-Rabbi Jessica Rosenberg

"...not only does she possess a comprehensive knowledge in ancient Near Eastern history and languages, but also a penetrating wit that makes each class a pleasure to attend. I highly recommend taking advantage of the opportunity to learn from a scholar and teacher like her ."
