I grew up in Philadelphia attending Jewish Day
Schools and knew early on that I was fascinated
by Jewish education. Once I
discovered Davidson, I knew there
Ay
was no other choice for me. There,
I was exposed to the greatest professors in text, history,
rfi
and pedagogy. They taught me how to educate the
whole child...how to meet the differentiated needs of
each student. I soaked up everything I could
from them, not just during classes, but in every
interaction. Now when I teach Jewish history —
my own personal interest — I know I
can be effective in planting the
seeds of continued Jewish
identity in every child.
